On these chilly winter nights, send your loved ones a warm hug with these extraordinary stamps!

The Australian Antarctic Territory issued a beautiful set of 4 stamps in September 2016 that feature Ice flowers. The stamps come in the denomination of $1 and depict beautiful photographs of natures amazing and ice cold wonders.

Ice flowers are natural ice sculptures that look like flowers. They are created on autumn or early winter mornings when ice in extremely thin layers is pushed out from the stems of plants.

The icy patterns seem to grow like plants and resemble ferns or flowers. These natural wonders are as beautiful as they are rare.
