Lunar New Year is the most important Chinese festivity that follows a 12-year Chinese Zodiac cycle.
This stamp sheetlet captures all twelve Lunar New Year Animals in the third Series. The pattern of the stamps strung together in a conventional order symbolises happy reunion and endless blessing.
The Animals come vividly alive against a backdrop of Chinese paper cutting - a highly skilled and expressive folk art often used for home decoration to usher in a favourable year. The paper-cut floral design in gold and red on the stamp sheetlet adds to the joyful mood of the Spring Festival. A very nice sheetlet which adds to the colourful collection of your stamps.
