About the Item

This exquisite sterling silver necklace is a masterful creation by Resia Schor, a celebrated artist and jeweler renowned for her organic, sculptural approach to metalwork. Though married to the acclaimed artist Ilya Schor, Resia cultivated a distinct artistic identity, seamlessly blending modernist influences with deeply personal and expressive craftsmanship. The necklace features a delicately handcrafted chain, its uniquely shaped links interwoven with small, textured forms that create a rhythmic, almost ethereal effect. The pendant, a striking composition of molten-like silver, possesses an abstract yet naturalistic quality—its raw, elemental textures evoking the fluidity of nature. Upon closer inspection, the design reveals intricate, almost hidden figures: a bird in flight, accented by two ruby-colored stones above a floral motif, and a rabbit poised at the opposite end, resting above another delicate foliate design. A rare and collectible piece of wearable art, this necklace encapsulates Schor’s dedication to sculptural jewelry, highlighting her extraordinary ability to transform metal into poetic, evocative forms. 1.21ozt.

Antique Iranian Silver Amulet – Fine Judaica from Persia
Located in New York, NY
This exceptional antique silver amulet from Iran exemplifies the refined craftsmanship and spiritual depth of Persian Jewish heritage. Shaped in an elegant, lobed diamond form with delicately contoured edges, the amulet is engraved with intricate detail, reflecting both artistic sophistication and religious devotion. At the center, a stylized cartouche is inscribed with Hebrew text, likely invoking divine names or protective blessings — a hallmark of traditional Jewish amulets. Surrounding the central panel, a beautifully flowing engraved border in the form of a pointed arch or mihrab motif lends the piece a sacred architectural presence, often interpreted as a symbolic gateway to divine protection. Further floral and foliate elements are engraved into the design, subtly blending nature with mysticism. Additional Hebrew inscriptions encircle the inner medallion and appear along the edges, each rendered in clean, carefully etched lines. The amulet features four suspension loops — one at each cardinal point — suggesting it may have once been sewn onto clothing, hung in a home, or worn as a protective charm close to the body. Rich in symbolism and cultural meaning, this rare Iranian silver...
