Embossed Nostalgic Postcard, Scottish National Emblems

This vintage postcard design celebrates Scotland the way early 20th-century printers loved best: through tartan, folklore and a generous sprinkle of good luck. This design gathers together miniature sprigs of white heather, the traditional Scottish emblem of luck, each tied with its clan’s distinctive tartan. White heather itself has a long folklore pedigree: said to grow only where fairies have danced, and carried by Highlanders into battle as a charm against misfortune. Taken from the Choosing Keeping extensive collection of ephemera, we have worked carefully to match the distinctive colour palette and embossed texture of the originals - perfect for sending as a small note, framing as part of a gallery wall, or accompanying a gift.
