Delftware?
Having a frantic day? Thoughts racing. Too many tasks remain unfinished? Can’t rest? Can’t sleep? Can’t stop the ringing phone or incessant texts? Can’t stop?
Try watching this. It’s the best unwinding tool I’ve found all week. It’s the slow assembling of a tower of Delft porcelain. Multiple, separately fired components must be carefully stacked to assemble this monumental seventeenth-century ceramic vase for cut flowers.
That’s all. Nothing happens, nothing goes wrong, nothing gets broken. No drama. Just a conservator painstakingly assembling a Delftware Flower Pyramid.
Remarkably soothing, remarkably Zen. I guarantee it’ll wipe away the stress of your day in less than 3 minutes.
