Olive Branch Dove Ornament 3010 background-size: coverPeace on Eartha holiday message everyone shares. Dove with olive branch is handcrafted in translucent capiz. Capiz is the thin shell of a marine mollusk. First artisans wash and soak shells. After the shells have dried, they are cut into shapes and edged with metal wire. A finishing coat of varnish completes this labor intensive process. Before glass windows became available in the Philippines, capiz was used for windows in houses. Decorative only.
