Peace Catcher

Peace Catcher

In ancient Native American Ojibwa Chippewa tribes, there is dream catcher created, which is a symbol of protection and comfort, it was traditionally used to protect sleeping people from nightmares. Dream catcher would be hung above the bed in a place where the morning sunlight can hit it, it attracts and catches all sorts of dreams and thoughts into its webs. Good dreams will pass through and gently slide down the feathers to comfort the sleeper below. However, bad dreams are caught up in its protective net and destroyed/burned up in the light of day.

And The Palace Of Amber has our version of net or web covered hoop bead design, and we named it peace catcher, this bead is designed with a silver beautiful climbing plants covered a hoop, just looks alike a dream catcher hoop, and there are angel wing, feather and dove dangles beneath the hoop as dove is represented peace and love. We designed this bead for wishing a peaceful world, with no war, no pain and no suffer for every living creatures in this world.

We wish it can have the similar function as dream catcher, allow good deeds, peaceful minds and everything promote harmony in the world can pass through and gentle slide down our silver dangles on the bead. At the same time, all bad arguments, harmful thoughts, war, misunderstanding and all negative energy will be caught up in the protective net and destroyed in the light of day.

Paula the Koala Lock

Paula the Koala Lock
Paula the Koala Lock

While Northern Hemisphere will enter winter soon, we never forget it is summer soon in Southern Hemisphere, with the weather turns warmer, wild fire erupt easier.

There is a heartbreaking incident happened in New South Wales of Australia recently, more than 60 bushfires are burning in New South Wales and 350 koalas are estimated died in the bushfires near Port Macquarie. Koala usually protects themselves by climbing up to the top of tree and shrink their body into ball, this actually doesn’t help when their habitat is on fire, this might be the worst survival escape at this situation, which made them be the victim during this bushfire disaster. Some parties even claimed that koalas could be extinct by 2050 in New South Wales as their homes being destroyed over years due to multiple reasons.

The Palace Of Amber now has launched our new lock, Paula the Koala Lock to our website, this lock is two lobster claw style lock and featured with koala bear.
