An offbeat, offset, whimsical blend of complementary beads and charms create a unique set of earrings that can be worn on Shavuot, Simchat Torah or any time that you read Torah. It also makes a great Bat Mitzvah gift.
SHAVUOT celebrates the giving of the Torah (5 Books of Moses) to Moses and the people of Israel at Mount Sinai. The Torah is decorated as a way of showing honor and respect. Rimonim often adorn the tops of the handles. A portion of the Torah is read every week. A special pointer called a Yad is used to read the Torah so as not to get any oils from our own fingers on the parchment. These earrings can also be worn by a BAT MITZVAH, when a 13 year old girl is called to read from the Torah for the first time.
The hinge style earrings are gold plates over surgical steel
Price: $ 20.00
Shabbat earrings—could you die over the little candlesticks? I’m more into the tribal bone look myself, but I seriously love these from Yontifications.com, a line of Holy Day-inspired jewelry designed by Judaica superstar Susan Fischer Weis.
Really, you need to check out the whole year—the adorable little shofar for Rosh Hashanah had me squealing like someone put baby bunnies in my sock drawer. And Sukkot’s baby lulav and etrog— lady, you’re killing me! The mini-matzohs and teeny hamantashen are so freakin’ precious I want to become a Hebrew school teacher so I could have an appreciative audience for them.”
