Context

The bowl was gifted to Mrs. Jessie Jordan during the Twelfth Annual Ladies’ Festival at the Kuwait Masonic Lodge on February 15, 1961. The event was held in the Ahmadi Guest House, a small event space owned by the Kuwait Oil Company, and Mrs. Jordan was the Guest of Honor. Mrs. Jordan was honored at many Ladies Nights during her time in Kuwait and was often the “Guest of Honor” at such events. Ladies Nights in the Masonic Lodge are designed to honor the women in a Freemason’s life, whether that be a wife, daughter, sister, mother, or other supporting woman.
