Wood and Silver Book Stand (Shtender) - Flowers

Height:  11.8" / 30 cm
Width:  13.8" / 35 cm

This is the classic desktop shtender that lovers of Torah have used for generations to ease their learning by holding the book at a comfortable angle.  What makes this shtender different form the others you've seen are the beautiful materials and the superb workmanship.

To the deeply stained wood body is attached a silver plated plaque with a floral motif.  The Hebrew text in the center is the classic verse from the Prophets regarding the centrality of Torah study: Vehagita bo yomam valaila ("Meditate upon it day and night") (Joshua 1:8).
