Stamps Series «Confetti» with 5 confetti pieces (worth 1x CHF 1.20)

A party atmosphere on your envelopes! Whether for invitations or congratulations, these colourful special stamps lend themselves to creative franking, putting a smile on the face of the person they’re addressed to even before they open their mail. Whether in the middle of the carnival procession, at a wedding or on New Year’s Eve, when the party bombs let brightly coloured shreds of paper rain down: wherever colourful confetti is found, a celebration usually isn’t too far away. The word confetti comes from the Italian “confetto”, or “confetti” in the plural. Roughly translated, it means sugar- coated treats. For example, gifts of sugar-glazed almonds – called “confetti” – are traditionally given in Italy to celebrate births or weddings. Like the relaxed mood at celebrations, the new special stamps make it a breeze to frank party invitations or congratulations. As if thrown and landing randomly, the decorative confetti turns an everyday activity into a playful moment. Five decorative pieces of confetti combine to make up the new A Mail value, which will come into effect from 1.1.2024. But why wait? You can use them right away to make your mail pop!
