EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming cutout Christmas card from the late 1890s, featuring a tankard in the shape of a traditional English pub mug. The intricately cut design showcases the tankard's curved handle, adorned with holly and ivy leaves, adding a touch of the season's greenery. The red berries and gold accents add a pop of color and a sense of good fortune with the horseshoe at the base of the tankard. This beautiful card, which dates back to the early 1900s, is a testament to the rich history of Christmas card traditions. The cutout design, with its intricate details, would have taken great skill and patience to create by hand. The use of natural motifs like holly, ivy, and horseshoes was common during the Victorian era, as they symbolized good luck, prosperity, and the festive spirit. The tankard shape adds a unique and rustic touch to this Christmas card, making it a standout piece in any holiday display. This card would have been a cherished keepsake, passed down through generations as a reminder of the joy and warmth of the holiday season. With its timeless design and rich history, this cutout Christmas card is a beautiful reminder of the traditions and celebrations of the past.
