This sturdy simple vessel once held food during the age of David and Solomon. From a pot such as this David may have eaten on the night before he slew Goliath.

We wonder whose hands once grasped its handles, and we recognize that it radiates with the energetic glow of those ancient lives. - (P.0648)
