Metropolitan Museum of Art, Set of 4 The Cloisters Garden Lacquered Wood Coasters in Lidded Case
These lush lacquer coasters celebrate a selection of botanical studies (ca. 1510–1515) by the Master of Claude de France, whose spectacular book at The Met Cloisters belongs to what's been called "the last flowering" of northern European manuscript illumination in the medieval tradition. The French artist immortalized garden variety flora, from the blackberry to the marigold, in witness to their beauty.

Each of the flowers in this magnificent manuscript can be found in the gardens at The Cloisters.

Each coaster has a different botanical illustration on it.
