FRENCH SILVER TORAH SHIELD.

Accompanied by authentication documentation prepared by the acclaimed silver expert, the late Rafi Grafman (1939-2001): “French silver Torah ornaments are rather rare in general, but the “Tablets of the Law” shape of this shield is very uncommon. Though the identity of the silversmith who made this fine object in unknown, the engraving on it is exceptionally fine and delicate in execution. Indeed, it would be a prize piece in any collection, public or private.”
