Original WW I Silk Embroidered Souvenir Postcard from France Beautiful Embroidery DragonFly Flowers

Antique Silk embroidered postcard which usually carried messages from soldiers at the front to their loved-ones back home. This is a beautiful hand embroidered gem!

During the First World War families waited desperately for news from the front, soldiers for special occasions such as birthdays anniversaries etc sent these ‘French’ souvenirs back home. Interestingly these postcards were mostly embroidered by French women in their homes, and then sent to factories for cutting and mounting.

This lovely postcard has a sentimental message on back , so romantic and endearing! A beautiful  piece of history to display and add to your collection of antique postcards!
