| Description |
Imagine the hand that, centuries ago, laid down the patterns on this flask with bold strokes, or the people through whose fingers it passed in Biblical times. The abstract geometry seems to convey the lively spirit of those ancient lives. 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 links us directly to that ancient era. Our hands rest where those of others did so long ago; the energy, the bond is there to be felt.
