About the Item
A Refined Pewter and Copper Mezuzah Case made by Shalom Bodner, in the United States in the 20th Century.
Shalom Bodner (1932-) Born in Czechoslovakia, Bodner immigrated to Israel in 1949. He studied painting and sculpture at the Bezalel Academy of Art in Jerusalem and continued his studies at the Grande Chaumiere in Paris. In 1979 Bodner came to the United States where he pursued a career in jewelry and Judaica.
He has been a painter for over forty years and has been exhibited throughout Israel, Europe, and South America.
Each item he creates is individually hand-crafted from mixed media which includes silver, brass, copper, bronze, and lead-free pewter.
A must-have for any Judaica Collector; this unique Mezuzah case is truly eclectic, made by a person who lived in many parts of the world, and his creativity is derived from those places.
This mezuzah is not made in the general fashion of one solid piece rather three separate ones and when combined makes a fabulous designed casing.
The top of the mezuzah case is decorated with a hamza and foliate scrolling and is inserted through its center cylindrical copper shaft to secure the scroll within. the center is beautifully embossed with foliate borders
Surrounding the center "Shin" are the words "Shema Yisroel" spelled forward and backward in an unsuspecting scrolling fashion.
The lower section is harmoniously decorated similar to the top and both have an applied crown with a pierced loop used to affix the mezuzah case to a person's doorway.
Signed at the back of the central section.
