Description

Recall our ancient traditions and history of the priesthood since Aaron with this bejeweled silver necklace, a classic piece of Israeli jewelry. This Jewish jewelry harkens to those ancient days wherein we could converse with God through sacrifices by and with the priests in in the Great Temple. The Great Temple was filled with silver and gold, as offerings to the Priests and other servants of the Lord.
This particular necklace is made in the style of the breastplate of the High Priests as discussed in the Torah, with a specific jewel for each tribe. The placement of the stones was dictated by God’s words in Exodus 28:17-19, “You shall set in it four rows of stones. A row of carnelian, chrysolite, and emerald shall be the first row; and the second row a turquoise, a sapphire and a moonstone; and the third row a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst”. Here, crystals recalling each stone are set in silver in this truly Jewish wearable art.

Refael Seadya makes his beautiful jewelry in a Jerusalem studio, where every hand crafted piece is pored over and delighted in.
