Flower pressing is an ancient practice that dates back to classical Greece and Rome, where flowers were collected and studied. Over the centuries, it evolved into a popular hobby in the 19th century, as people pressed flowers to preserve memories or capture nature's beauty, such as flowers from weddings or gifts from loved ones. These pressed flower necklaces capture the beauty and simplicity of the art. Real flowers are captured between glass and encased by a delicate branch motif, in gold vermeil, allowing the wearer to feel refreshed and refined. The botanical necklaces pair well with mini flower presses, German Flower Children Figurines, and our Floral Poplin Nightgowns. Shop our other fine jewelry here and antique jewelry here.
