EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming handmade Christmas card from the late Victorian era, circa 1890s. The card, which is shaped like a round, iced cake, adds a delightful touch of whimsy to the holiday season. In the center of the cake, Santa Claus stands proudly, dressed in his iconic red suit with a white beard and a sack full of toys slung over his shoulder. The intricate detailing on Santa's costume is truly a sight to behold, with each stitch and fold expertly crafted by hand. The cake itself is a work of art, with blue icing and decorative fruit designs adorning its surface. The card's most unique feature, however, is the removable slice on the right-hand side. This thoughtful design allowed the recipient to detach the slice and keep it as a keepsake, making this card not only a beautiful decoration but also a cherished memento. The card's vintage aesthetic transports us back to a simpler time, when handmade gifts and heartfelt messages were the true essence of the holiday season. The use of natural materials, such as paper and ink, adds to the card's authenticity and charm. This exquisite handmade Christmas card is a testament to the creativity and craftsmanship of the past. It is a treasure to behold and a reminder of the joy and wonder that the holiday season brings.
