2022 USPS Hanukkah Forever Stamps 100Pcs/Pack

The Postal Service continues its tradition of celebrating the joyous Jewish holiday of Hanukkah with a stamp design that features an original wall-hanging. The fiber art was hand-dyed, appliqud and quilted to form a colorful abstract image of a hanukiah, the nine-branch candelabra used only at Hanukkah. The festival is observed by lighting the candles of a candelabrum with nine branches, commonly called a menorah or hanukkiah. One branch is typically placed above or below the others and its candle is used to light the other eight candles. Jeanette Kuvin Oren was the stamp designer and artist. Ethel Kessler was the art director.

In 2022 Hanukkah begins on the evening of December 18 and ends on the evening of December 26.
