The Christmas Gift
WE CREATED A SIMPLE YET LUXURIOUS RED VELVET CYLINDER, WHICH HOUSES A CHRISTMASY LANDSCAPE UNDER A GLASS DOME INSIDE. THE CYLINDER – A COMPOSITION OF RED AND GOLD – HAS BEEN EQUIPPED WITH A BRASS KNOB ON THE LID FOR EASY OPENING AND CLOSING OF THE BOX, AS WELL AS A RED TASSEL. THE GOLDEN PLAQUE WAS PERSONALISED WITH EACH CUSTOMER’S NAME AND NUMBERED AS OUR WINTER WONDERLAND WAS LIMITED TO ONLY 12 COPIES. THE INTERIOR CONTAINS A CHRISTMAS SNOWSCAPE FEATURING FIR TREES AND SNOWY HILLS, ALONG WITH A DEER AND MY ASSISTANT TOM AND ME. THE INSIDE OF THE BOX IS LINED IN RED AND EQUIPPED WITH A GENUINE VELVET CUSHION IN THE LID TO PROTECT THE GLASS DOME. THE ENTIRE PIECE WAS HANDCRAFTED BY US WITH GREAT CARE AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL.
The Christmas Card
THE CARD FEATURES THE SAME DESIGN ELEMENTS AS THE GIFT AND FEATURES DUPLEX BLIND EMBOSSING AND GOLDEN HOT FOIL STAMPING. THE CARDS AND MATCHING ENVELOPES WERE THEN CALLIGRAPHED BY HAND WITH GOLDEN INK AND SEALED WITH GOLDEN WAX. THE ACCOMPANYING ILLUSTRATED MANUAL PROVIDES EASY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY REPLACEMENT AND CARE. ALL PRESENTS WERE PERSONALLY DELIVERED. BOTH PRESENT AND CARD WERE FULLY HANDCRAFTED BY YOURS TRULY WITH LOVE.
