A beautiful paper lace Valentine card with a double paper lace flap. The upper layer has gilded roses, with pierced paper lace leaves. On top of this layer is a burning red heart and various coloured paper scrap book flowers and cherubs, also a picture of an envelope with 'Love souvenir'.
The under layer, is completely made of paper lace and has impressed 18th Century figures, in a garden scene. On the garden steps is the impressed word 'WINDSOR' and there is a coloured paper butterfly in the centre. The card is 7" (18cm) x 4 3/4" (12cm) and in good vintage condition. There is a darkened impression of the flap, on the back part of the card, presumably caused by age and the glue has dried up, where the two layers of the card where stuck together, at the bottom only.
I am happy to post abroad and always combine postage where ever possible. I have other linen and lace listed. If your would like extra photographs, please message me.
