Striking yet fragile red algae herbarium, made by hand in Maine in the late 1800s, in a vintage fabric double-matted lacquer burl look finished in marquetry by Dorvilliers of Paris. The delicate tendrils of the botanical are punctuated by its deep red color - an improbable firework. On paper and under glass, with self-easel.
