About the Item

Following on from the hugely successful ‘Vinyl Collection’, Natasha Heidler & Richard Heeps have collaborated again, drawing from the childhood past time of stamp collecting. Their unique darkroom process, like an x-ray, reveals the detailed make up of the stamp, which is not possible to see in the physical object. Nearly all take the appearance of a woven tapestry, intricate patterns and artworks from the 19th & 20th Century, are brought to life to be appreciated in the present day. And with the practice of stamp collecting enjoyed by todays older generation when they were children, the exotic imagery takes you to a far off land in a time when overseas travel was limited, the post marks make a physical connection with unknown people around the world. The collection is a documentary of history, dated postmarks connect the images to a time unimaginable and with these artworks you can carry on the British Psyche of ‘collecting’ building your own Heidler & Heeps Stamp Collection, with the pieces that speak to you. Interestingly you will notice the imperfections and some of the writing and numbers in reverse and colours quite different to an actual stamp, in stamp collecting that is what makes a stamp valuable, small runs made with errors, but I’m sure you will agree that is what makes them all the more intriguingly beautiful. This artwork is a limited edition of 25, gloss photographic print. Accompanied by a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity. We can provide framing on request (black or white box (shadow) frame) which including delivery is an additional £375/ $500 . This artwork can be purchased in bespoke sizes, just get in touch. Be sure to look at our other artworks listed on 1stDibs as they are great paired for interior design projects.

Original circa 1970 travel poster breathtaking skyline of Hong Kong
Located in PARIS, FR
This original circa 1970 travel poster captures the breathtaking skyline of Hong Kong's Central District at dusk, showcasing the city's vibrant energy as lights illuminate Victoria Harbour. The high-rise buildings, bustling waterfront, and iconic junks dotting the harbor embody Hong Kong’s rapid urbanization and economic boom during the mid-20th century. The poster design features a striking aerial photograph, framed by a muted beige border that enhances the dramatic cityscape. At the top, bold red Chinese calligraphy spells out "香港" (Hong Kong), providing an elegant cultural touch. The bottom is anchored by a strong, modern black “HONG KONG” typography, reinforcing the city’s bold and cosmopolitan identity. This vintage piece reflects Hong Kong’s transformation into a global financial powerhouse during the 1970s. Central District, the heart of the city’s business and commercial hub, became a symbol of progress, attracting international trade, banking, and luxury developments. A true collector’s item, this poster is a timeless representation of Hong Kong’s skyline before its modern skyscraper boom. It encapsulates the charm of old Hong Kong...
