Description |
The functional simplicity of this vessel lends
it a timeless elegance that appeals to
contemporary tastes as much as it surely
did to ancient ones. Even after the passage
of millennia, the design of such a pot could
hardly be improved upon. What did it once
contain, we wonder, and who poured from
its spout and drank? Did those ancient
people stop, as we do, to admire the grace
of the vessel as they held it in their hands?
We feel in its presence a direct bond with
those long- forgotten individuals.
