Hongkong Post today (December 12) announced that its Framed Stamps Customised Service will be launched tomorrow. The service consists of two selections which can offer a unique gift that will melt the heart of someone special particularly for this Christmas and the New Year.
The Framed Stamps Customised Service - Souvenir Cover with Stamps, featuring the mythology of the zodiac signs, is a colourful celebration of personalities, making it perfect as a gift for each precious moment shared, such as a birthday, a graduation, a wedding, an anniversary or the retirement of a loved one. With the Framed Stamps Customised Service - Souvenir Cover with Stamps, customers can choose the stamp sheet representing the recipient's zodiac sign to be presented together with a congratulatory message and a stylish frame as a memorable philatelic present.
The customised framed Western Zodiac Signs Souvenir Cover and stamp sheet is available online at $468 via the Hongkong Post Internet shopping mall ShopThruPost (www.shopthrupost.hk). Customers can simply select their favourite zodiac sign stamp and enter their text and special date, and a unique souvenir cover with dearest wishes will be made.
For the Framed Stamps Customised Service - Thematic Stamps for Selection, Hongkong Post has selected four thematic stamp issues, namely the "Hong Kong, China - France Joint Issue on Art" Souvenir Sheet, the "Working Dogs in Government Services" Stamp Sheetlet, the "Hong Kong Festivals" Stamp Sheetlet and the "Hong Kong Delicacies" Souvenir Sheet, for customers to pair with five frame design choices and eight different colour cards to create their favourite framed stamp product.
Each customised framed stamp product is sold at $238. Customers only have to complete an order form downloaded from ShopThruPost and return it to the Hongkong Post Philatelic Bureau. Once the order is confirmed, Hongkong Post will create a framed product featuring the favourite stamp. Whether at home or in the office, one can enjoy viewing beloved stamps which are ideal as gifts or collectables.
For more information, customers can call the Hongkong Post enquiry hotline at 2928 7110 or visit the ShopThruPost website at www.shopthrupost.hk.
