Antique Scherenschnitte Cupid tin sign and many years of use

and many years of use left in it

6 1/2" tall x 3 3/8" wide x 1 5/8" deep

Links measure about 1 1/2" long each

but I am not entirely certain of its age

which seems appropriate on a mournful day

Antique Scherenschnitte Cupid tin sign and many years of useHard to imagine a more lovely valentine than this antique cut paper cupid with wonderful silhouette and finely done bow and arrow pointing straight toward his own name, a charming example of the art of Scherenschnitte, which always makes me marvel! Cut of white paper and adhered to tan (natural colored) light weight card, just right, perfect for popping in a small frame just as it is. Very good antique condition. 2 1 2" x 2 5 8".
