TRIANGULAR STAMPS

A GUIDE TO TRIANGULAR STAMPS

A Passion for Triangular Stamps

Hi, my name is Sharon, and I’m a passionate triangular stamp collector. I built this website to share my love for these unique stamps with fellow collectors and anyone curious about their history.

Collecting stamps has always been more than just a hobby for me – it’s a journey through time, culture, and design. There’s something special about triangular stamps that makes them stand out. Maybe it’s their unusual shape, the intricate artwork, or the fascinating stories behind them.

Exploring My Collection

On this site, you can explore triangular stamps in two ways:
📅 By year of issuance – Discover stamps from different historical periods.
🌍 By issuing country – See how different nations have embraced the triangular format.

Why Triangular Stamps?

Unlike traditional rectangular stamps, triangular stamps are rare, eye-catching, and full of character. Their designs often reflect important historical moments, artistic styles, and cultural themes.

📜 A bit of history – The very first triangular stamp was issued in 1853 by the British colony of Cape of Good Hope (now South Africa). Known as the Cape Triangular, this stamp featuring Queen Victoria has become a sought-after piece for collectors.

💎 Hidden gems – One of the most famous triangular stamps is the 1897 Dowager Empress stamp from China, featuring Empress Dowager Cixi. Stamps like these tell incredible stories and have become treasured collector’s items.

🔍 Endless discoveries – Whether it’s a 1965 U.S. Special Delivery stamp featuring a jet plane or a vintage airmail triangle from Ecuador, every stamp has its own story.
