Love's Token

Description

Adorned with a prominent pink bow and delicate wings, this plump cherub sits in classical pose atop an anvil amid draped fabric in soft peachy tones. The angelic figure clutches a red heart aloft in one hand while holding a hammer in the other, with a quiver of arrows strapped to its body. A fireplace with visible flames appears in the background of this exquisite Victorian-era Valentine card. An elaborate purple floral border frames the composition, featuring intricate botanical patterns typical of high-end chromolithographic production. The card text reads 'Love's Token' at the bottom.
