Lebanon 1925 Cedar of Lebanon

Lebanon · 1925 · 1 Piastre

This definitive stamp features the iconic Cedar of Lebanon (Cedrus libani), a powerful national symbol. The design is simple yet elegant, with the tree centered and inscriptions in both French and Arabic, reflecting the dual official languages of the time under the French Mandate.

Issued under the French Mandate for Syria and the Lebanon, this stamp was part of a series that helped establish a distinct Lebanese philatelic identity centered on its most famous natural landmark.
