Antique Swallow Postcard with Purple Pansy Parasol in Relief

An antique decorative postcard featuring a swallow beneath a parasol adorned with purple fabric pansies. Lilac bows, green foliage and gold-toned details complete the colourful scene.

The bird and parasol stand in relief against a soft, pale pink textile background, edged with a silver-toned border. The richly coloured flowers and textured surface give this small piece a distinctive decorative appeal.

A charming addition to a collection of antique postcards, floral ephemera or bird-themed treasures, and a lovely piece to display in a shadow box.
