2025 Lunar New Year - Year of the snake- Miniature Sheet First Day Cover

£5.30 / In Stock

This First Day Cover displays the miniature sheet from our '2025 Lunar New Year - Year of the Snake' issue.

This First Day Cover is an exclusively produced item; all the stamps are affixed to a specially commissioned full colour envelope and cancelled with a Jersey Post First Day of Issue special date stamp. Information and technical details of the issue is printed on the reverse.

Alongside the Chinese zodiac signs, certain elements are also associated with each 12 years cycle. In 2025, the element will be wood, which is why the artist has chosen to incorporate the colours blue and green into the miniature sheet’s artwork. To represent the continued cycle and life, the snake has been portrayed in the sign of the infinity symbol.
