Primitive decor brightens a corner area
The primitive decor called the Drifting Ferns series was born when fern leaf studies were pressed between glass. Since using real fronds would deplete the forest of our native ferns, the images are printed on the back of glass. This process makes for a permanent piece of primitive decor that will never fade or turn brown.

For more than 300 million years, ferns have proliferated into many diverse forms. Anywhere in the world you might travel, ferns flourish in a variety of locations. Indeed there are approximately 12,000 different types of ferns. At one time in our ancient history, ferns were the dominant vegetation. Most of the ferns of that period became extinct but some survived to evolve into our modern ferns. To label a series of fern prints as "primitive decor" carries an authentic tone. Today, there are about 12,000 species in the world.
The "leaf" of a fern is called the frond. Wherever you see a fern, you are actually looking at a frond. It is divided into two main parts, the stipe (leaf stalk or petiole) and the blade (the leafy expanded portion of the frond. Fronds vary greatly in size: ranging from tree ferns with 12 foot fronds to the mosquito ferns with fronds only 1/16 of an inch long.
Enthusiasts for ferns can be found at The British Pteridological Society, founded in the Lake District in 1891 Today it continues to provide a wide range of information about ferns, through its website and by publishing regular journals, leaflets and books, and organizing formal talks, informal discussions and outdoor meetings. The international membership includes those interested in gardening, natural history and botany, both amateur and professional. It is a friendly society run on a voluntary basis. If you are seeking a friendly society of fern friends, British Pteridological Society may interest you.
