Here are three antique and highly collectable relief Valentine postcards, dated 1911.
They all have the them of hearts and flowers, with gilded details and relief.
These antique postcards are full of symbols, in Victorian era hearts were symbol of Romantic Love, Myosotis flowers mean “remember me” in language of flowers, Cowslips mean Youth and Anemone flowers mean regret.
Wonderful details and tender colors, an antique patina that simply cannot be imitated!

Highly collectable especially if you collect antique postcards with angels or cupids theme and illustrated Victorian and Edwardian era postcards.
Really lovely also to use for your interior decorations, I like to use them to create a wreath hanging them with small clothespins….
Of course a wonderful Valentine’s day gift for every Victorian antiques lover…..
