Inspired by 18th century origami puzzle purses, these double sided love letters cleverly unfold to reveal a 19 stanza illustrated (and rather dramatic!) poem influenced by victorian valentine verse. Traditionally, a lock of hair, pressed flower, or ring, would be revealed in the centre as the segments unfolded.
Like a love letter or favourite book, these puzzle purses will 'age' overtime, gently wearing in the lovely way paper and ink does when it's constantly handled with care and affection. They really are a very unique and special gift.
Hand Screenprinted with 8 layers of colourful inks, and with gold leaf details, these heartfelt magical objects will bring warmth and love to those that both send and receive them.
