What sets this piece apart is its beech tree, which pairs the fairy theme with a woodland setting. Small printed tags like this were tucked onto gifts and parcels in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when color lithography made inexpensive decorative paper widely available. Fairy imagery drew on a long folklore tradition and was popular in illustrated books and greeting cards of the period. Look at how the tree and its figures leave space for a handwritten name or message, a reminder that these tags were meant to be used as well as admired.
