Description

Known as the Ark of Testimony, the Ark of Covenant is made in gold, containing the Commandment tablets, given to Moses on Mount Sinai by G-d. It was built according to G-d’s instructions and was carried during the forty years the Israelites wandered in the desert. During rest, the ark was placed in a special tent, called the Tabernacle. This figurine is a beautiful replica of the ancient gold Ark, being carried by seven Hassidic men, each wearing a garment adorned with Hoshen gems. Hoshen, or Priestly breastplate, is a popular symbol for the 12 tribes of Israel, each represented by a colorful gem. It was a sacred breastplate worn by the High Priest of the Israelites, as described in book of Exodus. Each stone was to be a mineral, arranged in four rows, as they are arranged on this piece. The silver lid, or Kapparot, is featured with two sitting Cherubim, facing each other. This marvelous figurine will be a beautiful gift for any occasion!
