Thorn Rose

A single rose stem rises across the card — bloom fully open, thorns unhidden, buds still forming along the branch — rendered in vivid pink ink in the tradition of the botanical woodcut, where a plant was shown whole and honestly, in all its stages at once. The linework has the density of an engraved plate: every leaf carefully veined, every thorn given its due. Printed by letterpress on fine heavyweight paper, Thorn Rose is a card for anyone who appreciates the beauty in a thing that doesn't soften its edges. Measuring a demure 3.5 by 5 inches, these cards are ideal for sending quick notes, thank you messages, or simply to brighten someone's day. Pack of six cards includes matching envelopes.
