{"product_id":"the-jane-austen-regency-token","title":"The Jane Austen Regency Token","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA letter worth waiting across the room for.\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf an exchanged glance and an undelivered letter can sustain your interest for several chapters, this is your sort of correspondence. The Jane Austen Regency Token brings that Austen-like anticipation to a personal note: a figure holds a letter on one fold, with its intended recipient on the opposite side. Flowers, hearts and a couple framed by leafy branches complete the romance. Write your own affection, appreciation or encouragement at the centre, then fold it closed. Not every declaration needs a drawing room full of witnesses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe design is based on a puzzle purse by E. W. of New England, dated 1790. These intricately folded paper tokens were used as handmade valentines in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, revealing verses and sentiments as each section opened. This modern keepsake revives that pleasure of discovery, making the unfolding part of the message. For a reader drawn to Austen’s world of letters and courtship, it’s a small ritual worth bringing back: a few considered words, in your handwriting, for someone to keep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBy The Keep Sake Press\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack of two hand-folded paper keepsakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach opens in layers, with space for a personal message at the centre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes a practice sheet and folding instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaper sheets measure 16 × 16 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrinted on traditional laid paper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign based on a 1790 New England puzzle purse by E.
