I have found that the most meaningful gifts are those that are unique and one of a kind, and selected with great care.  For your consideration are some beautiful items that are available for immediate shipment from the Quatrefoil Design store.

I am very excited to announce a new offering in the Quatrefoil Design store, available right now!  Artist Melissa Tubbs, well known for her exquisitely detailed original ink drawings, has created a series of four finely rendered bird drawings for the store.  These are original drawings - one of a kind - and are all signed by the artist.

I have custom framed them in a high quality, hand painted black frame, which sets off the drawings to perfection.  The bird drawings are sold individually, and would look lovely as part of a collection on a gallery wall, and would look equally exquisite as a set.  They are so amazingly detailed, and are truly works of art!

Also available for immediate shipment are a beautiful series of antique French documents that date from the late 1700s to the late 1800s.  These are original and one of a kind, and are custom framed in a beautiful wood frame hand gilded in our signature ‘gilver’ finish (silver with a translucent gold glaze).  These are sold as a set.
