Its decorative black stamped cover, gilt lettering, and gilt top edge give it strong visual appeal, and the compact square format makes it especially attractive for display. Books on the language of flowers were widely loved in the 19th century, when flowers carried coded meanings tied to love, friendship, remembrance, and grief.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1999\" data-start=\"1498\"\u003eThis book was created to help readers understand those meanings, pairing floral symbolism with selected poetry and original illustrations printed in colors and gold.

The black stamped floral decoration and gilt lettering remain visible, and the gilt top edge is still present. The spine shows expected wear for a small cloth book of this period. Internally, the pages have mild toning and some foxing, both consistent with age. A good, presentable copy of a desirable Victorian title.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Austyn Marie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49812511097110,"sku":"AMD-0384","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/4623\/5926\/files\/F3ECE0B0-540D-41CC-BF6A-42E1CD7B420A.jpg?v=1774374816","url":"https:\/\/austynmariedesign.com\/products\/language-sentiment-flowers-victorian-cloth-book","provider":"Austyn Marie Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
