Why Vashti?
So many customers ask us why we named our company
after the Queen of the Empire of
Persia
, the banished wife of King Ahashverosh, described
in the Scroll of Esther. While there is no single answer, we chose this name primarily
because we admire the queen’s courage, independence, and beauty. We are amused and
awed by her refusal to dance before a gathering of drunken nobles and military commanders.
If you are unfamiliar with the story, sneak a peek at the Scroll of Esther.
