12 Free Vintage Roses Images

Today I’ve rounded up some of my all time Favorite Roses Images!  I’ve searched through our Vintage Image Archives here at The Graphics Fairy to find my top 10 Rose Flower Downloads. This is a great collection of some of my best offerings in this theme, in a variety of colors, there are big beautiful Red Cabbage Roses, Pink Tea and White Tea Roses and more. These would work beautifully in all sorts of Graphics Design, DIY or Craft projects, like Handmade Cards, Invitations, Decoupage, Scrapbooking, Pillows, Gift Tags, Wall Decor and More!

I was able to obtain a coordinating set of 3 of these, I have included all of them in this post, so make sure you use the slider to scroll through and grab them all. They would be lovely Framed and Hung together on a Wall!

Next we have this wonderful, and hard to find, Vintage Teacup with Roses Graphic! This one is an old Victorian Scrap Advertising piece showing a pretty little Chintz cup with some Red Moss Roses along the saucer. Such a charming piece! This one would work very well in Collage or Mixed Media pieces.

This image comes from that print, it’s Circa 1850’s and was made in Paris! I love these Old French Floral Engravings so much. I think these Roses are especially pretty. You can do so much with these, nice for Stationery or Invitations, Web Design or lovely for Decoupage and Transfers too!

Floral Rose Bouquet Image

So I cheated a bit on this one, since it’s actually a mixed bouquet, but I had to squeeze in this Floral Rose Bouquet Image, since it’s one of my favorites! Scanned from an 1850’s English Botanical Book, in my collection, this one shows a stunning combination of Pink Roses and a Blue Hydrangea! Such a yummy combo.

This Free Roses Stock Image, is a gorgeous old Advertising Trade Card for a Shoe Store in Connecticut! Featured on the card are some stunning White and Pink Cabbage Roses!!

Swoon! This Red Rose Botanical Printable is the best one that I have ever found!! Isn’t it gorgeous?!! This print dates to Circa 1883 and according to the caption the Rose in the Picture is a Rose Charles Lefebvre. Such a spectacular looking flower and a true Cabbage Rose! You can print this up and frame it for some Instant Botanical Art, or use it on a DIY project, I think it would it would be lovely transferred onto a pillow!

 

Vintage Rose Wreath Frame Image

And last but not least is this old Postcard showing a gorgeous Pink Roses Wreath Frame! You could add some text in that little blank area to customize it, or use it to frame up a photo!

Vintage Printable Pink Botanical Rose

This one nearly takes my breath away… it’s just that beautiful!! This is a rare Botanical Print Circa 1828 by G. Spratt. It’s an early hand colored lithograph. These types of prints usually go for a pretty penny, but I got really lucky on this one and got such a great deal! It arrived from London just a few days ago and I couldn’t wait to share it with you guys! According to the print, this gorgeous Pink Flower is a Rosa Centifolia, or 100 leaved Rose.

This is another rare Botanical Print Circa 1828 by G. Spratt. Yes, it’s by the same artist as the one above. The Rose shown here is done in deep red tones that shade to dark pink, with bright yellow in the center. According to the caption it’s a Rosa Gallica, which is apparently also called a French Rose. So lovely!
