Origami from Croatia!
Awhile back, origami artist @ivan-g offered to give away pairs of coasters for those who wanted them. They are constructed via origami tesselations and are quite lovely!
I was pleasantly surprised to note that the coasters were sent in a piece of paper which had been folded into the shape of an envelope! How clever! 😁
There was also a note enclosed, executed with some very cool hand-written calligraphy!
The geometry is fascinating!
One can't go wrong with two colors! Of course, these are too pretty to actually use as coasters, but would make lovely decorations in many places!
There was also a very cool Croatian stamp on the envelope. "Hrvatska" is the name of the country in the Croatian language (actually: Republika Hrvatska), and Veliki Tabor is a castle that was built in the middle of the 15th century, and currently houses a museum.
Thank you, @ivan-g, for sharing your artwork in this way, through a gift!

a big hug is due to @enginewitty for designing the following personal banner for me 🤗
Definitely too pretty to use as coasters @thekittygirl.

I love sending and receiving mail.
Flat origami coasters seem ideal.
Thanks for sharing ❤️
Aww that's lovely :-D will check out origami tesselation too!
Would be a shame to put a glass of ice cold beer on it. It looks so hard to do, but a coaster is a coaster bring out the drinks.
ohh wow! Hehehe! Nice one!
Awesome, glad it arrived, im pretty sure I put a tiny rose in there aswell, might have slipped through a crack :s
There was a small hole in the envelope when it arrived, so the tiny rose likely escaped, en route! It's probably lounging on the French Riviera, sipping drinks!
Although the rose didn't make it here, I appreciate your thoughtfulness, anyway! 😊
Thanks again for the lovely gifts! 💙
