Floral Embossed Border

This vintage image is from one of the many wonderful children’s books from the publishing firm Blackie & Son of Glasgow. It was included in their 1883 work A Box of Stories: Packed for Young Folks.

A variety of flowers and leaves make up this embossed-looking border. While the image is a bit crooked, it is made extra interesting by the small places where a flower petal or leaf extends beyond the main image.
