Stamp & Letter Collectors
In an age of texts and emoji, anyone who still writes thank-you notes by hand deserves a medal, or at least a very pretty porcelain envelope. Limoges stamp boxes and letter designs are made for the stamp collector, the pen pal, the writer or the friend who keeps every birthday card in a shoebox. Each one is hand-painted in France, hinged and arrives gift-boxed, no postage needed. It's the rare gift that feels as personal as a handwritten note and lasts a whole lot longer.
The mailbag is overflowing in this collection. Look for working stamp boxes in pastel florals, light blue patterns and butterflies, plus mailboxes trimmed with wisteria, garden birds or a beach-house view. A red English post box with a removable letter, doves carrying a note and a New York postcard headed to Paris keep the mail moving. Writers will love the typewriters in black and green, and holiday fans can choose a letter to Santa at the North Pole. There's even an elegant letter opener for the person who reads every envelope carefully.
Stamp collectors and letter writers tend to keep beautiful desks, and these boxes belong right on them. Keep a stamp box beside the stationery, line up mailboxes along a writing-desk shelf or set a typewriter next to a stack of favorite books. Collect by season with a valentine envelope or a holiday letter, or give one whenever a friend moves away so you'll both keep writing. Slip a handwritten note inside the lid before you wrap it. Consider it the most charming mail they'll get all year.
