"A mezuzah is a box affixed to the doorposts of Jewish homes, containing a parchment with prayers from the Torah. It serves as a daily reminder of Jewish identity and faith, as well as protection from evil. Inspired by the mezuzahs in my childhood home, I designed this piece by blending my artistic style with traditional Judaic elements. The organic shape, stones, and stone placement reflect my jewelry design, while the emerald symbolizes hope, renewal, and growth in Judaism. Crafted from sterling silver—a common metal for Judaica—the mezuzah will naturally tarnish over time but can be restored through polishing, a process considered a “Mitzvah” (good deed) for beautifying a commandment."
