My latest mezuzah case takes the form of a house. The original texture of the walls of the home I created myself. It is a wallpaper like pattern of flowers reminiscent of the arts an craft movement in the late 1800's. I also included a raised scroll design. There are three arched windows, one of which is open so one can see the scroll that would be put inside the mezuzah. A dormer juts from the left wall of the structure and a chimney is on the roof. But the most spectacular part of the mezuzah case is the door, which I made tiny silver hinges when opened reveals in Hebrew, the word,"Shema".
As usual, piece is one of a kind, fine silver.
