"Lewwer duad üs Slaav" wooden bowl (Frisian North Germanic motto)

Wooden bowl in the shape of a tub with 2 handles - made from untreated spruce, also usable as a bread basket.
Old Frisian motto and freedom cry: "Lewwer duad üs Slaav" (rather dead than a slave) burned in on both sides with a soldering iron.
 
North Germanic peoples, North Sea Germanic peoples, Frisians, Stedingers, and all other Germanic tribes!
 
For the saying "Rather dead than a slave", there are, among others, depending on the region, the spellings:
  • Lewwer duad üs Slaav 
  • Lewer duad üs slav
  • Lever dood as Slav
  • Lever dood as Slav
  • Liewer düd aß Slaawe
  • Liewer düd aß Slaawe 
The answer to Eala Frya Fresena (Frisian Freedom) in East Frisian Low German is the cry "Lever dood as Slaav" (Rather dead than a slave).
 
Lewwer duad üs Slaav
"Unity and Freedom for the Northland Peoples", thus the cry for freedom resounds louder and louder through all lands. In Frisia, the oath once rang out: "in life, in death - in defiance of tyrants".
 
At times, many a place of deceit and trickery, through injustice and oppression, desecrated all that was sacred to us. An end to devastation, our ancestors as an example; half-dying, half-living - the sword in the right hand, which we pass on to our children. - The last warning becomes the duty of our heirs: Lewwer duad üs Slaav.
The sword consecrated with but one oath. The embers blaze, the blade sparkles in the light. Carried in honor for generations, to the pleasure of the gods, to the fear of enemies. The earth trembles, the swords flash in the raging battle towards victory. To the legacy, the cry rings out in eternity: Lewwer duad üs Slaav!
