The central Arabic calligraphy is the mirrored form "Bismillah irahman arahim" - "In the name of the God (Womb One) of Benevolence and Compassion." These are the words that begin each Surah of the Koran and are attributed to Solomon speaking to the Queen of Sheba. The Hebrew words below are an expression of Welcome: "B'rucHim ha ba'im" - "Blessed is your arrival". The two perfume bottles/light ornaments represent the distillation of traditions. The large arabesque at the top is the Greater Reality, larger than any distillation.
This transom is acid etched copper with fretwork, treated with vinegar, repousse and punchwork. It is framed in Oregon Madrone with a rubbing of golden wax.
