Chromolithographs or colored stone prints are old, colorful panels. Measured in terms of brilliance and luminosity, they surpass almost every modern print. Up to 21 colors were printed one on top of the other in a very complex printing process. This technique was developed at the beginning of the 20th century. At the end of the 19th century, offset printing was replaced by cheaper but poorer quality.

The shipping is of course well and securely packed in a kink-proof shipping bag!

Shipping:
  • within Germany free of charge



  • Here are more motifs from Thome in the shop!




     Motifs: botany, botany, identification of plants, antique botanical prints, elf shoes, gypsy bells, devil bells, emperor bells, jesters' caps, ink bells, seaweed

    • If combined shipping via eBay doesn't work, I will of course refund the overpaid shipping costs!
