There are two earring styles available and both have been chosen to beautifully frame the rose stamp image.  Roses which are very popular in New Zealand and grow particularly well, were chosen as the subject of a new Definitive stamp issue in 1975.
The earrings are presented on a secure card that details the image origin on the back should you want to send these as a gift.

Earrings come in a range of Oval settings and are hypoallergenic. They are Copper, Lead, Nickel and Cadmium Free.

Roses which are very popular in New Zealand and grow particularly well, were chosen as the subject of a new Definitive stamp issue in 1975. The Diamond Jubilee Rose was pictured on the 5c postage stamp of 1975.  Diamond Jubilee roses were planted to celebrate the 60 years  Queen Elizabeth II has been on the throne. A special unveiling of a plaque commemorating the event and the rose was unveiled as part of the annual Rose Day celebrations at Broadgreen in the Samuels Rose Garden. The Jubilee Rose has a stunning fragrance and is a repeat flowering rose. Earrings are made with original stamps and as such will have different postmarks to those pictured. All care is taken to present a beautiful image under glass that is not obscured by heavy postmarks. However a small postmark is a lovely addition to the image as it represents the history and travel of the stamp. It speaks to the special journey that the stamp has made as it travelled around New Zealand or possibly the world.
