Antique Handmade Valentine: To Frank from Emily (Look Inside!) Chinese bronze enameled box with the black and white

with the black and white meaning stop

but there are not many of her drawings accessible and I am by no means certain

So many beautiful old tools in the world

really all minor

Antique Handmade Valentine: To Frank from Emily (Look Inside!) Chinese bronze enameled box with the black and whiteYesterday I came across a bunch of old handmade valentines, including this one, filling me with total joy. This may be my favorite of the lot a bit unassuming on the outside, though with this lovely scalloped edging, but then inside 4 hearts for our dear Frank, who I'm very sad seems never to have chosen one to give back to our Emily, who clearly expended a great deal effort on him! Another one that makes my heart ache. 5 3 4" x 3 3 4" closed. C. 1900
