Lidded Pot 'Driftwood'

Virginia Bacheler
$50.00

A lovely lidded jar to keep special treasures. Often used as a 'wish pot', a Chinese tradition. It is believed that if you write a wish on a piece of paper, roll it up and place it into the vessel, it will come true. Good luck charms are often kept inside as well. Driftwood symbolizes the eternal relationship between wood and water, and forest and sea. It symbolizes the ever-present moment, which is at once the past, present, and future - here, now, in this nanosecond contained.
