Star of David with CZ Stones and Black Enamel - Rhodium (2.5 cm - 1 inches - 20 Inch Chain)

• The Zohar (3:73a) states, There are three knots connecting [three entities] one to another: the Holy One, blessed be He; Torah; and Israel. The Jewish soul connects to its Creator through the study and observance of Torah. The triangle represents the connection between these three entities.
• These three entities are each comprised of a pnimiyut (inner dimension) and a chitzoniyut (external dimension). The Torah is comprised of both exoteric teachings (the Talmud, Jewish law, etc.) as well as esoteric teachings (the Kabbalah). Gds revealed energy permeates and provides existence to all worlds, but His essence is completely hidden, transcending all of creation.
• The double triangle of the Star of David (Magen David) symbolizes the connection of both dimensions of Gd, Torah and Israel: the external level of the soul connects to the external expression of Gd via studying the exoteric parts of Torah; the essence of the soul connects with Gds essence through the study and application of the teachings of Kabbalah.
• Perfect Jewish gift for all occaisions

Rhodium is the finish of choice for top end fine jewelry. Most high end white gold and platinum jewelry seen in boutiques are plated with rhodium. This is because platinum and white gold by itself is beautiful, but over time the finish can be easily scratched and become very dull. This is very true for white gold because high karat gold is often times very soft. Rhodium is an extremely hard metal which is rated a full 6.0 on the Mohs hardness scale. When platinum and white gold is finished with a rhodium plate, an invisible shield is created. The metal bonds very well and doesnt quickly rub off like what youd expect most plated items to do. This invisible shield gives years of scratch resistant enjoyment. In addition to adding a protective layer, the rhodium finish beautifies the piece of jewelry as well. Rhodium is highly reflective and it has a gorgeous deep luster that is a bit darker than white gold, which is just a plain bright white finish. The deep dark luster combined with the high reflection produces a truly unique finish that differentiates the high end products from what can be easily mistaken as stainless steel or silver.
