Hand-written letter with love
The letters are printed in [font_name] font on coffee-coloured paper to appear aesthetically pleasing. They are not actually hand-written.
Traditional Colours
Red: The default colour for general and official correspondence. It signified authority, importance, and power. In personal letters, it could also represent love or passion.
Black: Specifically reserved for mourning, death, or condolences. Using it for any other purpose was historically considered a major social error. It was also used for some high-level state matters to signal solemnity or secrecy.
White: Typically used for weddings, formal invitations, and birth announcements. It symbolised purity, innocence, and sincerity.
Gold/Silver: Signified prestige, wealth, and high status. These metallic hues were often reserved for royalty, high nobility, or extremely formal occasions.
Newer Colours
Blue: Associated with trust, loyalty, and tranquility. In the Victorian era, it often represented romantic feelings; darker shades signaled deeper passion.
Green: Indicated casual, friendly correspondence or new beginnings. Historically, it was also used for financial documents or matters of enduring importance.
Pink: The color of praise and congratulations. It was often used for lighthearted notes between friends or for expressions of affection and admiration.
Yellow/Ochre: Traditionally signaled optimism, creativity, or friendship. However, in some contexts, yellow could also imply jealousy or suspicion.
Purple/Lavender: Represented royalty, dignity, and spiritual depth. Lavender specifically was often used for delicate affection or poetic correspondence.
Teal: While not a "standard" historical color, in modern contexts it is often chosen for its aesthetic blend of blue's trust and green's renewal, frequently used for creative or modern professional branding.
