A Sterling Silver Siddur Binding Israel C. 1950

About the Item

This exquisite sterling silver Siddur binding is a masterful work of Judaica, crafted with exceptional artistry and devotion. The front cover is adorned with a striking depiction of the Luchot HaBrit (Tablets of the Covenant), inscribed with the Ten Commandments and crowned with a regal keter (crown), symbolizing divine authority and reverence. Surrounding this central motif is an intricate filigree framework set against a meticulously checkered background, adding depth and elegance to the design. Enhancing its grandeur, four encased emerald-colored stones punctuate the composition, their rich hue providing a beautiful contrast to the silver craftsmanship. The spine proudly bears the embossed Hebrew word "סידור" (Siddur), while a finely crafted pierced clasp ensures the prayer book remains securely closed when not in use. The reverse of the binding is equally captivating, featuring an elaborate arrangement of octagonal roundels, each delicately chased with the symbols of the Shevatim (Twelve Tribes of Israel). A magnificent and meaningful piece, this sterling silver Siddur binding seamlessly blends religious significance with masterful artistry.
