George and Garo Sandrouni, two of three brothers who own one of the best Armenian pottery shops in Israel; it's in the Armenian Quarter of the Old City. A few days ago they were showing their wares to Laura Bush, when she had a few minutes to spare between demos in the West Bank and Jerusalem. The Sandrounis make dishes, ornaments and tiles among their many products, all designed and handpainted on the premises. My favourites are their sinks and we have ordered one, painted with fish swimming in endless circles.
