Raven & Dove is known as a treasure chest of antique jewelry and vintage trinkets. Perhaps one of its best kept secrets, or something that's often overlooked, is its rare Valentine's Day cards. While some of the love notes are kept sealed in plastic binders, others clutter the shelves, blending in with the surrounding knick knacks.

Ornately decorated with lace and gold ink, some of the cards date back to the 18th century. Despite their age, these Valentine's retain lively colors; a testament to their loving origins.
