Zauberpflanzen und Amulette is a German cultural-history study of magic plants, amulets and folk medicine, written by M. Kronfeld and published in Vienna by Moritz Perles in 1898, aimed at readers of scholarly and popular folklore. Its plates are botanical line drawings of willow, holly, juniper and bird cherry, showing leaves, catkins, berries, cones and bark in fine hatched pen work that a designer could use for herbal or woodland motifs.
