This amazing sterling silver necklace features an adaptation of a small silver parchment inscribed with the Priestly blessing which was discovered rolled up in such a way that a string could be threaded through and the scroll could be worn on the body as a necklace or ornament. Two such scrolls were discovered at the Ketef Hinnom burial caves during the excavations that took place there in the 1970s. They are dated to 700 BCE at the end of the First Temple Period. These verses are the earliest examples we have of written Biblical texts. (Numbers 6:24-26)
The City of David collection is a unique and exquisite line of artwork based on the actual discoveries made in the City of David's famous archaeological excavations, which are uncovering the history and culture of Jerusalem dating back thousands of years. Each piece comes with its own story of the archaeological find that inspired the design, and which enables you to connect the rich past of ancient Jerusalem with the present day beauty of these original works of art.
