SAILORS VALENTINES
Sailors Valentines were first designed by sailors during
the 19th century with the sea shells they collected from their voyages. A true sailors
valentine was said to include a flower design, a heart in any form, and a special verse or
message. These works of art were made in wooden boxes usually two sided and hinged, with a
heart shaped lock to close it. The sailors then took their valentines home to loved ones,
thus the name Sailors Valentine
