Antique Swedish Herbarium - Yarrow, circa 1908
Collected in 1908, this specimen of Achillea millefolium, commonly known as Yarrow is a fine example of early 20th-century field botany. With its finely divided leaves and pale, clustered inflorescence, Yarrow has long been studied for both its ecological resilience and medicinal associations.
This antique pressed flower preserves the plant’s distinctive upright form, with narrow, feathery foliage arranged in a near-geometric rhythm along the stem. Though its color has softened with age, the structural clarity remains intact, a testament to the careful hand that once laid it to page.
Historically used in herbalism and battlefield remedies, Yarrow continues to be admired for its symbolism of healing and endurance.
Carefully preserved. A botanical archive in its most elegant form.
