Description
As part of their ongoing effort to support peace throughout Palestine, the Bethlehem Baubles is launching Peace Lights, to serve as a reminder of our common humanity and the urgent need for peace, harmony, and regional stability.
Bethlehem Baubles Peace Lights are meticulously hand-blown by skilled Muslim artisans in Hebron and then sent to a team of Christian women in Bethlehem, who delicately paint the dove and olive branch symbols. Bethlehem Express coordinates with Israeli shippers to ensure the careful export of these Peace Lights.
Made in Palestine, the profits from the sales of these Peace Lights will fund the establishment of a training centre. This centre will empower a new generation of painters and glass blowers, providing vital opportunities for young Palestinian artisans struggling to find work
