Ivorine New Year’s greeting card with envelope box, 1900s.
Description
Made of ivorine, the card features a hand-painted miniature floral design within an embossed, brisée lace-style border. A small tag affixed beneath the flowers reads, ‘Happy New Year To You’. At the back, there is a cardboard easel that allows the card to stand. The creamy white envelope box bears a King Edward VII stamp, providing a means of dating the card.
