Product details

Vintage Coffee Plant Botanical Print

Connect a favourite daily ritual with botanical art through this coffee-plant print, listed as an illustration from the eighteenth century. Its plant subject offers a distinctive choice for a kitchen, coffee corner or collection of vintage botanical artwork. Choose it for an appreciation of historical illustration or as a reminder that the familiar drink begins with a plant.

About the illustration

This artwork approaches coffee through botanical subject matter rather than through a café advertisement or a diagram of brewing equipment. It invites an interest in the natural origins of everyday ingredients and the tradition of recording plants through illustration. The product is a modern print for wall display, not an original eighteenth-century sheet. The broad period is retained without assigning an unverified artist, exact year, publication or scientific species.

A personal coffee corner

Imagine placing the print above a coffee station, with favourite mugs, warm wooden shelves and softly textured kitchen linens nearby. It can give that everyday space a personal botanical connection without requiring every accessory to follow a café theme. The recorded black, green, brown and beige palette provides a starting point for coordinating neighbouring artwork and smaller decorative details.

A smaller format can join an established arrangement, while a larger print gives the plant subject a more prominent place. Pair it with Blackwell’s tea illustration to explore plants associated with drinks, then introduce cherry and lemon artwork for a kitchen gallery connected by edible subjects. It also offers a thoughtful gift idea for someone who enjoys coffee and vintage botanical art. Consider the available wall area and usual viewing distance when choosing between the three sizes.

Paper, printing and finish

Produced using giclée printing on quality 200gsm art paper, with a matte finish.

Pair it with

Continue the botanical drinks theme with Elizabeth Blackwell’s Green Tea (1739). Add Jean-Louis Prévost’s Cherry (1805) and Ellen Isham Schutt’s Lemon (1908) for a kitchen gallery connected by edible plants and botanical illustration.
