Redoute Red Camellia Botanical Print Key Chain

As a Camellia grower myself, I can attest that all of us Camellia lovers are positively passionate about these little trees -- so if there's a Camellia grower in your life, you've found the perfect gift! I adore this particular print: lovely, simple, elegant, charming -- everything but the marvellous Camellia scent. Produced by "the Raphael of flowers" Pierre-Joseph Redouté for his sumptuous book of engravings Choix des plus belles Fleurs. I love the graceful lines, the vibrant greens of the sun-dappled leaves and the rich red of the flower itself. Truly, it's an exquisite bloom. (Well, that's no wonder: the specimen he painted belonged to a French princess!) You'll find another version of this camellia key chain (without the lettering) along with matching note cards, Christmas cards, stickers, postage stamps and more in my gallery's Antique Botanical Prints Collection.
