There is something wonderfully endearing about the charming canine portraits found amongst the treasured ephemera of the Victorian era. During the 1800s, dogs became beloved subjects of illustrated greeting cards, festive scraps, and decorative prints, often depicted with remarkably human expressions, elegant attire, and just a touch of playful mischief.

 

As the tradition of exchanging Christmas greetings flourished in Victorian England, these delightful canine characters found their way onto cards and keepsakes, bringing warmth, humour, and affection to the holiday season. Our Victorian Pup pays homage to this enchanting tradition, capturing the gentle character and old-world charm of a bygone Christmas. A little portrait reminiscent of a treasured antique, celebrating the enduring bond between people and their faithful four-legged companions.

 

 

Nestled inside a genuine oyster shell gathered from the sparkling coastal waters of British Columbia, this handcrafted ornament celebrates cherished traditions, treasured memories and the joy of keeping old stories alive for generations to come.  Whether displayed on a Christmas tree, woven through garland, tucked into a wreath, or styled on a festive holiday table, it is a treasured keepsake designed to be cherished for generations.
