Victorian Christmas Holly Berries Bells Pink Bows Greeting Card

The gold-medallioned holly centerpiece and the two silver bells dangling from each side via pink bows form an odd couple with the two additional bells—four total—suspended from what appears to be a horizontal rod like some kind of festive gallows, as if someone decided that original symmetry wasn't quite enough. The holly itself is rendered with the unhinged botanical precision of a Victorian who had genuinely never touched a plant but had HEARD about them. 'A Joyful Christmas and a Happy New Year' is scrawled in red cursive at the bottom, which is either charming or the handwriting of someone who just committed a crime — honestly, both readings hold up.
