About the Item

This 20th-century silver Yad is an exceptional example of fine Judaica craftsmanship, featuring an intricate and elegant design. The tapering handle is adorned with a series of fluted, overlapping bracers, each embellished with delicate beadwork, creating a striking visual rhythm. The handle gracefully culminates in a sphere with a ruffled design, from which emerges a finely sculpted pointing hand, a traditional feature used to follow the Torah text during readings. The upper portion of the Yad is marked by a large, rounded sphere with exquisite floral patterns adorning one side. On the opposite side, a prominent cartouche bears a Hebrew dedication to a Bar Mitzvah boy named Aharon, making this Yad not only a ritual object but also a deeply personal and commemorative piece. Above the sphere, the design transitions into a spool-like form, flanked by two finely detailed rampant lions—symbolic of strength and heritage. Crowning this remarkable piece is an ornate imperial crown, enriched with delicate floral arches, enhancing the regal and sacred character of the Yad. 3.27ozt., Weight Marked engraving "800" on the top of the pointing hand
