Welcome! It's just a hobby, until you run out of space and start selling stuff....
It's 20th century and either Czech or Italian; I'm not enough of an expert to know which, and I've seen those flowers used in both places but...

That empress was sometimes called the Matchmaker of Europe or something similar - she had 13 kids to marry off.(LOL) Those trade thalers got...
