Dove of Peace

We all want to live in peace. We want peace with ourselves, in our neighborhoods, in the country we live in and beyond. In the midst of these challenges, we ask ourselves the question: what can we do to raise awareness of the value of peace and togetherness? The answer is provided by the new “Peace” special-issue stamp (face value CHF 5.80) with the unique embroidered motif of a peace dove.

The stamp is not just a collector's item, but a symbol of hope and global cohesion. This special project is the result of an international collaboration between several postal organizations, the United Nations, the Universal Postal Union (UPU) and the renowned Austrian embroidery specialist Hämmerle & Vogel. The partnership stands for a joint commitment to promoting peace worldwide. The embroidered dove of peace is a miniature work of art. It combines an ancient craft with modern technology and innovation.
