Dove Emoji
Animals
A white dove shown in profile, wings spread as if in mid-flight, carrying a green olive branch in its beak. The bird is depicted with clean lines and a simple, recognizable shape.
Usage Context
This emoji is the go-to choice for representing peace, harmony, and reconciliation. People often use it to signal a truce, express hope during difficult times, or pair it with the olive or peace sign emojis to emphasize a message of non-violence or friendship.
History
Adopted into Unicode 7.0 in 2014, the dove has served as a universal sign for peace for thousands of years, rooted deeply in religious and cultural traditions. It gained wider digital popularity following its inclusion in early icon sets meant to convey abstract concepts like 'peace' within text-based communications.
