WWI Era Christmas Gift Hand Embroidered France 1915
This was a gift from a British soldier stationed in France during WW I, circa 1915. It was sent to wish his wife, or future wife, a Merry Christmas. It features a purple ribbon, and flowers made from ribbon, embroidered leaves, all on a silken material, off-white outside, and dark green inside. It measures 6" x 8". Its condition is excellent for its age, having been preserved in the original box, and handed down to the daughter of the woman
This is a lovely object of affection, spreading holiday wishes during wartime.
