Description
Perhaps no era conjures up notions of romance, love, and endearment more than the Victorian age. This keepsake box contains five intricately constructed and beautifully decorated replicas of authentic Victorian valentines. Selected from the Art Institute of Chicago's extensive collection and accompanied by a book that describes the history, sentiment, and lyricism of this era, Love's Messenger is a beautiful testament to Victorian style and timeless romance.
