Scherenschnitte

Small scherenschnitte (scissors cutting) in form of a plant in an urn with a central heart and a pair of love birds.  Probably a gift for a loved one or, possibly, a memorial given the urn. Cutting is in fine original condition save for very minor stains that are scarcely apparent except upon close examination.  Frame has age but may not be original.  7 5/8" H x 5 5/8" W, including frame.  Pennsylvania origin, circa mid 19th century.  Fresh to market from an old collection.
