El Lenguaje de las flores y el de las frutas : con algunos emblemas de las piedras y los colores

1882 · Nueva York : D. Appleton Y Compañia 1,3 Y 5 Bond Street · 3 pictures

A Spanish-language guide printed in New York by D. Appleton & Company in 1882, listing the symbolic meanings of flowers, fruits, birthstones and colours for Spanish-speaking readers. The pictures are plain text pages and a decorative chapter opener, showing a dropped-capital initial with a floral border and a stylised flower motif, useful for a designer seeking ornamental letterforms and simple botanical borders rather than realistic plant drawings.
