Ashmolean Museum Oxford

Wounds Wooden Postcard

£5.00

In a world where digital communication is everywhere, the appeal of sending and receiving physical mail is still unmatched. Wooden postcards stand out as a creative and eco-friendly alternative to traditional paper cards, combining nostalgic charm with a contemporary flair.

One in a series of four bespoke wooden postcards made for the Ashmolean Museum's This Is What You Get: Stanley Donwood, Radiohead, Thom Yorke exhibition. Each card offers a different artwork on the front to enjoy. On the reverse of each wooden postcard is a typical layout of lined spaces for the recipient's address, and an open section to add your personal message.

This series of wooden postcards, crafted from thin slices of wood and each adorned with a unique intricate design inspired by the This Is What You Get exhibition, are not only visually striking but also make the perfect keepsake; as a more robust, tangible, and premium memento, as opposed to a more usual paper postcard.
