Abzu from the Sumerian ab 'water' and zu 'far' was the name for fresh water from underground aquifers that was given a religious quality in Sumerian and Akkadian mythology. Lakes, springs, rivers, wells, and other sources of fresh water were thought to draw their water from the abzu. Water is a symbol of purification. In dreams it often symbolizes our emotions and unconscious minds - our connection to the universal. It's the deep well where all creativity emanates.

Emporium (medieval Latin from Greek emporos = 'merchant') is a term used for a store selling a wide variety of goods, and for marketplaces or trading centres in ancient cities.

Abzu Emporium brings together our jewelry site (Abzu Designs) with our all natural bath and body product site (Abzu Aromatics). We make most what you will find on this site. We have chosen to import a few complimentary items (e.g., incense burners and oil diffusers).
