Puppies Puppy Pups Straw Wicker Wickerwork Year
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming late Victorian New Year card featuring two adorable puppies snuggled comfortably in a wicker basket, surrounded by soft straw. Dating back to the 1890s, this antique card captures the essence of the Victorian era's love for pets and the joy they brought to families. The intricately woven wickerwork of the basket adds to the rustic charm, while the playful puppies peeking out, with their bright eyes and fluffy coats, are sure to melt even the coldest of hearts. The New Year was a time for renewal and fresh starts, and what better way to welcome the new year than with the innocent and unconditional love of a puppy. This card would have been sent to loved ones as a token of good wishes for the coming year. The use of natural materials like wicker and straw also reflects the connection people had with nature during this period. This beautiful card is a reminder of the simple pleasures and joys of the past, and serves as a delightful reminder of the enduring bond between humans and their pets. As we celebrate the new year, let us take a moment to appreciate the love and companionship that our pets bring into our lives.
