Constant, Be Mine, 19th C. Paper Lace and Die Cut Valentine with Hand-painting garden of eden 6 5/16" x 4 7/16"I'll never say now to a pretty, early paper lace valentine, this one c. 1840s or so, I believe. A pair of die cut leaves saying "Constant" and "Be Mine," with embossed golden wreath and urn at center, and sprigs above and below, all decorated with hand painted flowers. Blank inside should one wish to deliver it with a note nearly 200 years later! 5 15 16" x 3 15 16. Very good condition, just a few minor light stains as one would expect.
