Someone made this by hand, and made it with love.
This vintage folk art slate plaque carries one of the most enduring sentiments in American gift culture — God could not be everywhere, so He created “mothers” — hand-lettered in flowing script on a torn-edge parchment paper mounted to a natural slate slab. Below the quote, a tiny fawn figurine nestles amid dried moss, miniature red botanicals, and a weathered twig, creating a sweet woodland diorama at the base. Two leather lace loops on the back make it ready to hang.
Approximately 7 x 9 inches. Natural slate with age-appropriate weathering on the reverse. Decorative elements intact.
A heartfelt vintage Mother’s Day or everyday gift piece — the kind that hung in a kitchen or hallway for decades and meant every word.
