Description
The willow pattern story is about two young lovers. The daughter of a wealthy merchant runs off with a humble assistant, they escape by boat and live happily for many years on an island, only to be hunted down by soldiers and put to death. The gods, saddened by this transform them into a pair of doves, or in this case, a couple of double barred finches.
In this pretty card wallet you get nine greeting cards with a pair of double barred finches doubling for the lovers in the willow pattern teapot.
