Iris Leather Checkbook Cover Ref: OD-CKBA16
The Iris (eye-of-heaven) is an ancient flower whose symbolism is embedded in Egyptian, Greek and Roman mythology and the history of European monarchies. The three petals of the Iris represent valor, wisdom and faith and have been allied with the forces of political and religious power since the 5th century in the form of the Fleur de Lis symbol, a stylized Iris flower.

The Greeks named the flower after the messenger goddess, Iris who traveled on the arcs of rainbows and guided the souls of women to the Elysian Fields.

The Iris was revered by the ancient Egyptians for the oil and powder of the root or rhizome, known as Orris Root.

In countries worldwide Iris root has been used medicinally or distilled into perfume with the odor of fresh violets. The Iris most common to Americans originated in the species Iris Germanica, native to southern Europe.
