These Vessels came from my desire to create a cover for a mason jars that protects the jars from breaking or clanging together while sailing on my boat.

As I discovered the different geometries in the patterns of the weavings, I became interested in the intention of use of the vessels based on the meanings in Sacred Geometry

Together with the rich history of knot tying in sailing and the mysticism inherent in sailing lore through the practice of sailing the globe and navigating by the stars, these vessels will carry you on your travels.

Mason Jars are practical, recyclable, and re-useable and can provide an alternative to paper, plastic and styrofoam cups.

Mason Jars and the Masonic traditions from which their name is shared, honor the wisdom of Sacred Geometry as the building block for meaning in architecture and design

Danneborg

My friend Povl asked me to make a vessel for him based on the Danish Flag.  I thought this was going to be easy. . . but,  the symbolism inherent in flags, the symbolism inherent in the danish flag (since it is the oldest continually recognized flag in existence), and the fact that there are two recognized versions of the Danneborg has left me with one of the most complex problems.  And, the fact that the international  maritime code flag  #4 is derived from the danneborg's white cross in a red background which adds a third configuration.  Hence the result:
Three flags: three vessels.  Two small ones representing the two differing versions of the danish flag and a bottle with all the differing geometries wrapped into one.

Oh and Povl, if you are looking for something to put into those glasses here is the book that got me acquainted with the danish history
