| Reverse description | A highly detailed depiction of a partridge perched upon a leafy branch bearing pears, rendered in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. Decorative snowflake motifs are placed in the upper field to either side of the bird, evoking the festive Christmas theme. The calligraphic inscription A Partridge in a Pear Tree arcs across the upper portion of the field in an ornate script, while the legend TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS curves along the lower rim within a banner-style device. The overall composition references the first day of the traditional English carol. |
