and indeed this kitty is right up my alley

The seal looks to be brass

Friendship + Remember Me, Pair of Early Punch Paper Embroideries on Ribbon brass letter opener and indeed this kitty isTwo more 19th c. punch paper embroideries on ribbons, one of them marked "1814," I presume the date of its making, though hard to know for certain. Found together and I think quite apt as a pair, so I offer them up as such. Friendship: 7 5 8 x 1 1 16 overall. Remember Me: 7 1 4 x 1 1 16. Some wear to the pink ribbon of friendship but both embroideries in very good condition.
