Winter Customs and Traditions

Blog article
The Post of Moldova has already issued several sets of stamps in the past devoted to winter traditions and popular celebrations ("sărbători de iarnă") in the country and sometimes also in neighboring Romania. On December 4, 2015, a new nice series (2 stamps) about that theme of winter popular customs and traditions ("datini şi obiceiuri de iarnă") was issued, in particular traditional processions, "Pluguşorul" and "Steaua", performed in Moldovan villages at this period of Christmas and New Year. These two stamps, each printed in sheet of 8 stamps, are included on the nice FDC below (designed by Iurii Palcov, also the author of the stamps) with cancellation from Chişinău (MD-2012), issued only in 400 copies.
