Victorian Holy Card | Be Ye Doers of the Word and Not Hearers AlsoOne of five exquisite, hand colored, Victorian holy cards, each available individually. It was so tempting to keep at least one: Its rather hard to find early Victorian holy cards of this quality and beauty. Refer to photos for size & condition. Excellent.

but this one is

blush pink silk satin used in high end lingerie & loungewear at the time: Some lady was very well off and wanted her daughter to get used to fine silk at an early age

Like most of the examples that come my way

& my favorite motif the weeping willow

handles like branches

Condition is good save for an arched scratch on the bottom of the shelf where the support has grazed it over the years

The mirror sits rather loosely in its setting

only it’s a larger print and features a colorful die cut in the center in the shape of a funeral flower arrangement

Is it a mourning jewel

Measures about 12” long
