Two open red roses with buds and stems are set against a plain, grainy green ground. The blossoms are not printed but built up in raised relief with a glossy, satin-like surface, giving the card a handcrafted, dimensional look typical of early twentieth-century novelty floral cards sold as greetings or keepsakes.
Green ground has a flocked/granular texture; flowers and stems appear applied or die-pressed in relief with glossy finish. No printed text on front; slight edge and corner wear.
Postmark: AUG 1907 (day illegible, machine wavy cancel). Divided-back private postcard with multi-language "Union postale universelle" heading; 1-cent green Franklin stamp. Light edge wear and slight soiling; no message written.
