Orchid 21.1.2013

The stylish Orchid stamp, designed by Susanna Rumpu and Ari Lakaniemi, also came out in January. The stamp is particularly suitable for purposes such as condolence cards. The stamp is printed with a delicate pearl lacquer, contributing to the dignity of the stamp. The stylish stamp is suitable for congratulations and printed condolences, for example. The orchid cultivar depicted in the stamp, Coilostylis parkinsoniana, is photographed by Jouni Seppänen, an all-round flower specialist.

The pretty Maxicard and the FDC were sent to me by my dear friend Ella.
