Product Features
Sometimes it's the little things that speak the loudest. Take postage stamps, for example—small pops of brilliant color that say so much about a culture and its history and traditions. This casually elegant necklace features an authentic red "Map of Ireland" vintage postage stamp. Fresh and contemporary, the pendant also exudes a sense of time that recalls an ancient, iron-age past. Each necklace is a limited-edition, one-of-a-kind piece of loveliness. Not to mention a little bit of history.

Did You Know? The red "Map of Ireland" stamp was issued as part of the First Definitive Series (1922-23) and the Second Definitive Series (1940-49). Every stamp used in CelticBelle jewelry is genuine, never a photocopy. Each piece is unique, and stamps may vary in color. Most stamps are vintage and have postmarks or cancellation marks, adding to the charm and history of the finished jewelry.
