For this design, I chose a symbol of peace in practically all cultures and countries — a dove with an olive branch.' says Alejandra Paiz of this delicate and unique beaded suncatcher. 'It represents hope and the desire for a new and peaceful beginning on Earth. It's associated with purity and spirituality.
'I say a prayer for peace,' the Guatemalan artisan continues. 'And I ask that we pray it together. 'No more wars. We want peace. May this peace dove reach all the homes of the world.'
'The principles of peace are love, justice and truth. Nothing is more valuable than peace, and it's the basic starting point for humanity to progress.
'I share sensations of peace with the beautiful crystals that reflect the sun's light to illuminate the heart and soul. We seek that which gives meaning to our lives. Peace. Let's be a source of light instead of darkness.'
Alejandra crafts the suncatcher by hand with crystal, glass and pewter beads, stainless steel ring and wire, a nickel chain and a zinc dove pendant.
