EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming late Victorian New Year card featuring an intricately designed orange segment on a plate-shaped card. Dated circa 1890s, this round and circular card is a beautiful example of the ornate and detailed craftsmanship of the era. The orange segment, carefully cut out and shaped from the card, is depicted in vivid detail, with each pip, seed, pith, and skin intricately rendered. The orange is accompanied by a smaller lemon segment, adding a delightful pop of contrasting color and citrus charm. The white plate, with its delicate rim and raised edges, adds a sense of elegance and refinement to the design. This card would have been a cherished and thoughtful gift to send to loved ones during the holiday season, symbolizing the hope and renewal that comes with the start of a new year. The intricate cutout design and attention to detail make this a truly unique and special piece of Victorian ephemera.
