| Description |
The bold, abstract geometry that decorates this
charming vessel seems to convey the lively spirit
of the ancient people through whose hands it
passed so long ago. We remember that these
were individuals who laughed and sang, talked,
argued and loved. In appearance they were
similar to us, though their vision of the world
was vastly different. This pot--which perhaps
held ritual oil or wine--links us directly to that
ancient world. Our hands rest where other hands
did in Biblical times; the energy, the bond, is
there to be felt.
