Great Estonian Things – the village swing

The postage stamp created within the framework of the stamp competition Great Estonian Things organised by Omniva depicts a village swing. During the competition, hundreds of Estonians provided their input on great Estonian things that deserve a spot on a stamp. The motif of the village swing was selected from the submitted proposals by holding a public vote.

The village swing symbolises a place where people meet and hold important community events – in addition to their long history, village swings continue to offer people joy even at today’s modern outdoor events. Such connections and experiences shared between generations give the stamp a festive and fun national theme, which makes it perfect for sending both greeting cards and travel letters.
