Additional info South of Jerusalem there is an area steeped in the history depicted in the Bible. Between the area where Tel Ekron and Tel Gath are situated, Herod the Great built a large glass factory, which was open and productive untill the Romans sacked jerusalem in A.D. 70. Day and night slaves toiled, blowing glass bottles and jars cups and other glasswear, glazing it with copper wash and firing it in a wood fired oven . Many of the delicate bottles and jars were broken in the process, swept out along with the ashes and dumped in a heap near the kilns. Over the centuries the different chemicals within the ashes and the glass, with the help of rain water, and the natural properties within the soil caused oxidation to form on the glass creating a delicate patina of rainbow colors in a stained glass effect. Today Kibbutz Revadim stands on this historic site where artisan create beautiful jewelry for our enjoyment and wonder. Keep dry and out of contact with chemicals, prolonged sunlight, and rough clothing, and it will last for many generations to come . All peices come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
