Professionally Mounted Original Antique (c1875) Chromolithograph Plate - Egg of an Erne.

This lovely and unique print produced in a collaboration between The Rev F.O. Morris and Benjamin Fawcett is published on cream-colored medium weight high quality paper. It is blank on the reverse & is in excellent condition for it's age, with no foxing or damage showing within the mount. 

The plate has been professionally hinged onto a specially cut high quality warm white mat, and mounted onto a foam core backing. The overall mount is ready to frame, & has been deliberately sized to suit a standard frame, should you wish to buy one 'off the shelf' rather than have the print professionally framed.  

These prints are wonderful on their own, or framed and hung together as a set.

Measurements:

Approximate actual print size - 160 x 245mm

Mat window size - 132 x 205mm

Overall mat size 28 x 35.5cm - to suit 11 x 14" standard frames. 

The Rev. F.O. Morris (1810 - 1893), an Irish parson-naturalist, in particular an ornithologist and entomologist, was a notable author of multiple children books as well as books on natural history & heritage buildings. Morris collaborated for many years with renowned English printer Benjamin Fawcett, & it is believed Alexander Francis Lydon, who was one of Fawcett's principal engravers, probably contributed much to these prints.

The popularity of these prints by Morris has made them increasingly scarce. These prints are more than 140 years old.

Their survival in such good condition for their age gives credit to the superb skills and techniques of Fawcett, which are now largely lost. He selected, ground, and mixed his inks with the utmost care. Only paper stock of the finest quality was used. The plates were color printed from separate wood blocks in up to four colors, with additional hand colouring.

Please note that the prints on offer are genuine vintage or antique, & therefore being offered as 'one off's'. You will not find them readily available to buy, or on display in someone else home. This makes them special, but the downside is if you miss out on one that you have your eye on I may not be able to source it again for you. If you would like a bigger set, please contact me as I may have more available in the collection.

Soft and durable!
I bought this for my husband as a christmas gift and so far it’s been great quality! He works outside and I wanted to get something warm and soft for the winter. It’s been washed (and air dried) 3-4 times in the last couple of months and it’s held up great!! Such good quality for the price. He says it’s very soft and warm and prefers it over itchy wool.

Favorite. Hat. Ever.
I don't usually write reviews but I though I would this time for two reasons. Ordered one of these in black from Amazon and it showed up in a nice giftable box and the hat itself is really nice. Soft, warm cashmere. Favorite hat I've ever had. The fit is perfect. Not too large, not too small. Overall very impressive and a super reasonable value too! Here is my warning: There were different colors available of course, one of which was a dark green which became unavailable. So I went to Villand's website where they had the dark green available for purchase for $26. I bought a second hat from Villand directly and it TOOK 18 DAYS for delivery! There is no phone number for customers to call on Villands website. I wrote twice asking about the order and heard nothing back. The tracking number provided did not work until about three days prior to delivery. I was honestly surprised when it showed up in the mail. I thought the money was gone and no hat was ever giong to arrive. No idea where it was shipped from but assuming over seas somewhere. My recommendation is to purchase via Amazon and NOT FROM Villand directly.
