Antique Judaica Torah Esther Scroll Pre-Expulsion Iberian Peninsula Spain 1470
About the Item
This is an absolutely incredible rare and truly unique pre-expulsion Iberian Peninsula handwritten Esther Scroll, inked onto animal leather parchment (15th century, -laboratory tested with provenance) and comes together with two 18th century silver Torah Pointers.
The Scroll, or Megillah, of Esther is one of five sacred books read from scrolls in synagogues on Jewish holidays. This Esther Scroll is one of the rarest and oldest to be known in the world. Torah Scrolls and Esther Scrolls from Pre-Expulsion Spain are very rare with only a small handful known to exist. These conclusions are based on both stylistic and scientific evidence and Carbon-14 dating.
The Esther Scroll is kept in the 16th Century wooden Box (Box length is 64 cm, depth 39 cm and hight 30 cm) with two Silver Torah Pointers (each 50 cm long) resting on the 16th Century textile pillow surrounded by beautiful red 16th Century fabric.
The lid of the Box is decorated with a Lion and the Torah Shield (“Tas” in Hebrew), - symbolic reference to the majesty and authority of the word of God.
The Esther Scroll in close position, measures 50 cm length. It is rolled up in a beautiful wooden handle with silver inlays .
The Scroll is the complete story of Esther and consists of 18 Pages with a length of approximately 4 meters.
The wooden trunk is lined out with original 16th century silk materials.
This unique treasure is a rare and one of a kind find for any enthusiastic judaica collector or museum.
