EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming and intricately detailed Victorian-era greetings card, featuring a flat brown fish with vibrant red spots, believed to be a depiction of a plaice. Dating back to the late 1890s, this unique card showcases the artistry and creativity of the era's paper crafts. The fish is meticulously cut out from the card, revealing a lifelike representation of the marine life with its distinct flat body, tail, and fins adorned with red spots. The card's vintage aesthetic transports us to a time when handmade greetings held great significance, and the simple pleasure of sending a thoughtful message to a loved one was a cherished tradition. This beautifully preserved card is a testament to the enduring charm of marine life and the art of paper crafting, making it a delightful addition to any collection or a thoughtful and unique gift for a friend or family member.
