This Ceramic Vase depicts the traditional storey of Katch-Kor ( go away - snow )
It is taken from a passed down story of a young man that went to a great and powerful Khan... he wanted to merry the Khans Daughter. The Khan told the young man " You look after my Camels for me, and when the size of the herd doubles, I will know that you are suitable for her hand...." The Khan knew that this was an imposable task as there was far to much snow in the land for the herd to increase in size . ... The young man took the challenge... he then faced the mountains and demanded Katch-kor, and the snow disappeared... ( as soon as I am finished posting this, you will find me on the front porch declaring Katch - kor)... the snow left, the herd prospered and grew, and the young man received the Khan's daughter as his bride
