History:
This pendant was inspired by a gold Sabbath ring,
dated 1806/7 from Cracow, Poland currently in the collection of the Jewish
Museum, New York. The Sabbath ring features a carnelian incised with a
candelabrum and a portion of the blessing over the Sabbath lights in Hebrew
which reads:
to light the candle(s) of the Sabbath. In some communities, it
was traditional for the bridegroom to give his bride such an inscribed ring on
the first Sabbath after their wedding. Available here as a small version of
identical size to the original ring and as a larger adaptation with a decorated
border derived from a traditional textile weave.
