A stamp issued to commemorate the 125th anniversary of the jeweller Bulgari (BVLGARI). It features a gold and platinum necklace with diamonds, emeralds, turquoises and amethysts.
This is the first Italian stamp depicting minerals or gems.
Many thanks to Professor Grubessi Odino (GeoStamps) for sending me a mint copy of the stamp and the First Day Cover of this very beautiful stamp!
ametista e bulgari, un connubio veramente eccezionale!
