Stamp Tongs

Stamp tongs are tweezers used in the handling of postage stamps and other philatelic items. Stamp tongs are an essential tool for any stamp collector and philatelists. They provide a reliable way of holding small pieces of paper without physically damaging the items or getting oils and dirt on them. A skilled philatelist will find them to be very efficient at handling a large number of stamps.

Stamp tongs have thin tips that can slide easily beneath a stamp. The tips have been dehoned so as to reduce the chance of tearing a stamp. They come in three different shapes:

  • Pointed
    A very narrow tip that is great for speed and precise positioning, but carries with it a higher chance of damaging the item being handled.
  • Round
    A wider tip with no sharp edges. Not as fast or precise as a pointed tip, but safer.
  • Spade or Shovel
    Broad, spatula shaped tip that provides a firmer grasp. These are good for holding larger stamps or more than one stamp at a time.

Stamp tongs also come with bent or straight tips. Some people find it easier to pick stamps up with a bent tip than a straight tip and others find that they can manipulate stamps faster using a straight tip.

The deluxe stamp tongs receive additional hand polishing on all four sides and come with a protective sleeve.
