Dove Mezuzah by Emily Rosenfeld

This contemporary mezuzah recalls Noah's dove winging her way back to the Ark with an olive branch in her beak, as a sign that the flood was ending and a new home could be built in safety. The ש (shin, the first letter of the Hebrew 'Shema' prayer) is merged with the olive branch as a symbol of peace.

Materials: pewter (suitable for indoor or outdoor use)

Dimensions: 4.5 x 1 inches

An enduring symbol of safety and protection for all who dwell within a home, a mezuzah consists of a prayer scroll in a decorative case, which is affixed to the front door jamb (and sometimes to interior doorposts as well). They make an especially good gift for a wedding or housewarming.
