This dreamcatcher traces the fine, regular patterns of the Flower of Life and the Seed of Life in a laser-cut wooden frame, closed at the bottom by white feathers and beads. The contrast of the precise cut and the soft feathers creates a warm yet airy effect, a lovely accent on a wall or beside a window.
The tradition of the dreamcatcher
The dreamcatcher is a well-known, respected object of North American Indigenous cultures. In tradition the web lets pleasant dreams pass through and catches the restless ones. Today many keep one at home as a decorative, symbolic accent. This is tradition and folk belief rather than a proven effect, and the motif deserves to be mentioned with respect.
The Flower of Life
The Flower of Life is a pattern of intersecting, regularly arranged circles, one of the best-known symbols of sacred geometry. It appears in many ancient cultures and is regarded as an old metaphor for the connection of all life and of the universe. The Seed of Life is the central, seven-circle base of this pattern.
Material and make
The dreamcatcher is made of a laser-cut wooden frame, textile thread, white feathers and beads, measuring around 54 by 21 centimetres. Because of the natural feathers, each piece varies a little.
Where it belongs
It looks loveliest hung on a wall, above a bed, beside a window or in a quiet corner. A symbolic, thoughtful gift too.
