When great palaces and temples have fallen to
the ravages of time, it seems somehow a miracle
that delicate glass like this should have come
through the ages intact and even more beautiful
than when it was formed. We delight in its subtle
brilliance, which shines like a beacon of eternal
optimism in a world full of uncertainty.
