Bare Feet Fretwork Lacy Sailor Straw Year
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming late Victorian New Year card featuring a young boy in a sailor suit, proudly holding a model sailing boat against a decorative lacy border. Dressed in a classic striped sailor suit and straw hat, the boy exudes the spirit of adventure and excitement that comes with the start of a new year. The intricately designed fretwork border adds an elegant touch to the card, transporting us back to the 1890s when such details were a staple of holiday greetings. The boy's bare feet and the seaside setting further emphasize the connection to the holiday season and the traditions of the time. This beautiful card is a delightful reminder of the simple joys of childhood and the enduring appeal of the seaside during the late Victorian era. With its historical significance and charming design, this card makes a perfect addition to any collection of antique greeting cards or as a unique and thoughtful New Year's greeting to loved ones.
