Resin Peace Pole

Four-Sided Resin Peace Pole

It is a little over eight feet tall (100 inches). Bugs don't eat it and it doesn't rot. It can be planted by sliding it over a wooden post  or other kind of stake or by burying a foot and a half of it in the ground. Cement would be overkill.

Parade

If you want peacepoles to carry in a parade or use in a ceremony, these are a good choice. They are clean and bright and light weight. If you plant them by sliding them over posts, each year you can lift them off and use them in the ceremony or carry them in the parade again. Wouldn't it be interesting to see a drill team executing maneuvers like a squadron of soldiers but carrying peace poles instead of rifles? (And wouldn't it be funny if people threw beads over them at Mardi Gras?)

At left is a photo of one with 8 languages, animal tracks and an image of the globe around the top. When a peace pole is going to be slid over a post, none of it disappears below ground. So the text and tracks can cover most of the pole. On the one at left some of the bottom left bare to keep it above snow. If it were being buried, I would have left even more of it bare by making the translations smaller.

If you want your peace pole shorter to make it easier to carry or to make it possible to display it indoors under an eight foot ceiling, let me know. There is no charge for cutting it.

Language Labels

Something we have started adding for free to resin poles is the labels on the languages. We label them in white so that they do not leap out at you. That way they do not make the pole appear too busy or crowded with text, but if you want to know which language is which, the answer is there if you look closely. That helps add interest to the pole. The closer you get, the more there is to see. At right you can see that when the light is right you can see the language label on the left side. The light on the right side made no shadows so the label on that side is not visible. 

Animal Tracks

If you are putting animal tracks on your peace pole, I think they look better when they are around the base of the pole (down where the animals are) as is seen below. If you let me put them down there, I don't charge for them and you still have room for the full complement of 4 or 8 human translations above.

Below is a close-up of what the animal tracks look like around the bottom of resin peace poles.

 

Graphic Earth

Another option for this pole (this particular option does have an extra charge) is an image of the earth as seen at left. Actually, it is two images of the earth back to back. Two images makes it so that you see the whole earth whenever you look at the pole, but from from a continually changing perspective as you move around it, since you never can see more than two sides of a pole at one time.

These are wider than wooden 4 by 4 inch posts. That allows me to make the text larger. Usually the text on these is about 30% larger than the text on plastic plaques as you can see below.
