Humans have long had a fascination with collecting and preserving flowers, a practice believed to date back to ancient civilizations.

Flowers of the time were often found framed behind glass in elaborate arrangements, sometimes with pieces of ribbon to complement the blooms

In the 70s, the spouses Paul and Jeanette Lambert first tried to extend the life of a flower by replacing the composition of its cells.  ⠀

This technology is based on a hypoallergenic composition. The experiment was successful and the world welcomed these unfading buds.
