This is a pair of French clip earrings in an antique bronze finish and features a 2023 postage stamp from the United States honoring prolific children’s book author and illustrator Tomie dePaola.
The stamp art features a detail from the cover of “Strega Nona” (1975), a Caldecott Honor Book and the first in a popular series. The title character, “Grandma Witch” in Italian, uses magic to cure her neighbors’ ills and to help with matters of the heart. The stamp image shows her carrying her magic pasta pot. Derry Noyes, an art director for USPS, designed the stamp with dePaola's original art.
The images were taken from a real, used, vintage postage stamp and may have post office cancellation marks.
Size of earring is 18mm and they are lead and nickel free.
Earrings are water resistant but not waterproof, I recommend removing before showering, bathing or swimming.
