Bring back the art of love letters this Valentine’s Day


28-11-2017, York - Romantics looking for an unusual Valentine’s gift will love My Billet Doux’s luxurious handmade silk cushions featuring antique ribbons and a secret pocket for loves notes. This nostalgic gift rekindles the lost art of love letters, a perfect antidote to glib emoji-filled texts of today.
 
Simply write your beloved a note using the pen and notebook that are supplied with every cushion, or opt for a personalised note written in calligraphy. Tuck the message into the discreet cushion pocket and wait for their reaction. Use the cushions for a proposal with a difference or to keep the spark alive by regularly hiding little loves notes to each other.
 
Every cushion is decorated with a strip of ribbon, some of which are extremely rare and date back to the 1800s. These add an extra layer of history and unique detail to the gift. The cushions are made from luxurious Indian silk douppion with a subtle sheen and come in a range of colours and ribbon designs, to suit any home.
 
Embellishments can also be added like tassels or vintage charms, each accompanied with a romantic quote. These items can also be purchased without a cushion for those on a smaller budget. Every cushion comes in a luxury gift box.
 
Cushions start from £160, while the vintage charms with quotes start from £12. A personal love note written in calligraphy starts from £17.
