Every once in a while, Erica at Postage Stamp Jewelry will use her stamps for something other than earrings or a necklace. Recently, she made two pairs of cufflinks. As with all of her creations, these are handmade from real postage stamps, not mass-produced. We have only one pair of each, the exact pair we photographed.
In 2006, the US Postal Service released a sheet of 39¢ stamps depicting DC Comics superheroes. This first set of cufflinks was made from two canceled Flash stamps from that collection.
The second set features a 1969 6¢ United States stamp called "Plant For More Beautiful Highways" from the Beautification of America series. The Stamp depicts a highway surrounded by lush meadows.
Cufflinks have an antique bronze finish and are 18mm in diameter.

About Postage Stamp Jewelry
Erica Everett is a Hudson Valley artist. After discovering a box of stamps at a yard sale years ago, she began to make jewelry, breathing new life into those beautiful little squares of paper that have traveled to and from many places across the globe.
Since then she's been finding and peeling stamps off of the backs of letters sent between lovers, friends, spies, and everything in between. She has fallen in love with exploring how they have made their way to New York. She's drawn to nostalgic American images, strong female figures, beautiful florals, architectural details, and all things curious and whimsical when thumbing through stamps.
Each piece of jewelry is one-of-a-kind and handmade from a vintage, cancelled postage stamp, and your wearing will add miles to its travels!
