Harvest Romance 3 Book Chesnut, Green and Pumpkin Floral Barton Cottage Set
Harvest Romance 3 Book Chesnut, Green and Pumpkin Floral Barton Cottage Set
In medieval times, the end of September brought with it the Harvest festival signaling the last of crops being harvested for the winter season. The Harvest festival was a time of dancing, drinking, eating and love. I wanted to bring the joy and beauty of a successful harvest season to your home and book collection with these Harvest Romance Barton Cottage sets. These sets feature traditional fall and harvest colors of coffee, wheat, navy, pumpkin, taupe and sage.
This set features some of my favorite books and they actually came from my personal collection. I just have so many books and I am trying to winnow them down a bit so that it's not quite so overwhelming to find somewhere to put them. These books are in a pumpkin, sage, chestnut, gold and red color palette. They each have beautiful floral covers and spines. The come wrapped in a double wrap of hand torn ribbon in with a wine colored vintage rose floral design and vintage lace that ends in a bow. Tucked into the back of the set are sprigs of wheat along with a spray rose.
This set features:
Reveries of a Bachelor. This is a scarce and hard to find edition published by Altemus and Co. You will find several of this style currently available here. This is due to the fact that these are coming from my personal collection and I had collected quite a few of them over the years. Bound in cloth the color of pumpkins, this set has a stunning red and gold floral design along the front cover and spine with gold butterflies in each cover of front cover. Undated c1890.
