These earrings use original stamps, from the 1988 Bird Definitives range. This pretty little alpine bird is very friendly and can be found living even in the snow. Two stamps are used to make these earrings and each stamp will show a little of the postmark which is quite a lovely addition. You will notice that there is a marked colour change in some of the stamps- shown in the image of three Oval Drop Earrings. This is due to the reissue of these stamps. When making your earrings I will make sure that I select stamps from the same issue so as to avoid a large colour discrepancy.
Your earrings will be presented on a card before being gift wrapped and carefully packaged.
Rock Wren postage stamp earrings come in a range of hypoallergenic settings, Copper, Lead, Nickel and Cadmium Free.

Rock Wren (Xenicus gilviventris) - 45c_a
The small, friendly rock wren is an alpine bird, even in winter, and lives a mouse-like existence in crevices and air pockets between and under jumbled rocks and scrub. Issued 1 July 1991 as the result of a change in postage rates, in both gummed and self-adhesive format. New Zealand's birds make for absorbing study. Many species are found nowhere else in the world. Others belonging to international families have developed unique characteristics because of long isolation from other land masses. information from stamps.nzpost.co.nz/new-zealand/1988/bird-definitives |
