Letter to Santa Claus
499,00€
The grandmother of an adorable child wanted to give her a very special gift—something the child would treasure for a long time; a small, precious object, made specifically for her.
Like all children, the little girl loves Christmas. The grandmother says that every year since the child learned to write, she has prepared long letters for Santa Claus, asking him for dolls, building blocks, beads and other things.
So we prepared this antiqued bookmark for her: letters travelling in envelopes with stamps on them, calmly, like the ladies’ chatting.
This bookmark measures 200 x 44 mm (~7.9“ x 1.73“) and weights approximately 45 g (~1.59 oz). Since these objects are handmade, slight differences will occur from one piece to the next. Cut and engraved entirely by hand, finished with chemical browning.

W.B.Yeats - There is no Frigate like a Book
To take us Lands away,
Nor any Coursers like a Page
Of prancing Poetry –
This Traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of Toll –
How frugal is the Chariot
That bears a Human soul.
Emily Dickinson
