Additional Information

Nickel Plated Mezuzah/Crown (Large)

Mezuzah Nickel plated mezuzah decorated with Breastplate and the word "G-d" in Hebrew ("El Shaddai" - also: "Keep the doors of Israel safe"). This mezuzah has soft backing for easy insertion of a parchment (not included).

Design: Crown

The Breastplate was worn by the High Priest in the times of the Holy Temple. It was decorated with 12 stones symbolizing the Twelve Tribes of Israel.

Tribe & Stone: Reuben – Ruby, Shimon – Peridot or Topaz, Levi – Emerald, Judah – Garnet, Issachar – Sapphire, Zebulun – Diamond, Dan – Opal, Gad – Amethyst,  Naphtali – Agate, Asher – Aquamarine, Joseph – Onyx, Benjamin – Jasper.

The Mezuzah is a symbol that can be seen on the right-hand doorpost in every Jewish household. It acknowledges G-d's sovereignty over the home. Within is a hand-inscribed parchment bearing the words of Deuteronomy 6: "Hear O Israel: The Lord our G-d is one Lord...And thou shalt write them (the words of G-d) upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates." Having a mezuzah on the doorpost, touching it and then touching the lips, reminds us to keep the word of G-d on our lips as we enter and leave our home.

Height: 6 inches / 15.25 cm by 1 1/4 inch wide.
