Jewish art for the body and soul! This amazing sterling silver mezuzah pendant is an adaptation of the ancient Jewish symbol of Divine trust and protection which is fixed to every Jewish home, and now you can carry it everywhere you go. Brush finished with a rhodium plating, a stylish Lion of Judah is set across the front, as is "Jerusalem". A rare work of art that holds the vibrant power of this iconic symbol in a beautiful contemporary design.

The Biblical "Judah" was one of the 12 sons of Jacob and the head of the Tribe of Judah, which is traditionally symbolized by a lion. In Genesis, the patriarch Jacob gave that symbol to this tribe when he refers to his son Judah as a "young lion" (Genesis 49:9) when blessing him. The Lion of Judah has been used as a Jewish symbol ever since, and since Jerusalem was the capital of the ancient Kingdom of Judah, in 1950 it was included in the Emblem of Jerusalem.

On the other side is a stylish Shin, the traditional Hebrew letter inscribed on the mezuzah for centuries.

This necklace is suitable for a man or woman.

Comes with sterling silver chain or black silicone cord in your choice of length.
