Indian Wedding Vase 8"x8"

The wedding vase has been a part of Pueblo life for centuries. The graceful spouts represent two separate lives. The bridge at the top part of the vessel unites these two together as one. 
The future husband's parents provide the wedding vase in a ceremony two weeks before the marriage - a festive time with gifts and advice for the bride and groom. 
On the wedding day, the vase is filled with holy water which has been blessed by a Priest or Shaman and given to the bride. She drinks from one side while the groom drinks from the other. This ceremony is equivalent to the exchange of rings. 
These tiles make wonderful wedding gifts!
