Description

"And thou shall write them upon the doorposts of thy house and on thy gates." That is the commandment found in the Book of Deuteronomy, Verse 6, line 9.  That is the reason for the mezuzah--the item affixed at an angle to the doorpost of a Jewish home.

The Hebrew word mezuzah actually means doorpost, but over time it has evolved to mean the item and what it contains.  Very little about this important object has been left to chance. Remember that Mezuzot are not restricted to the exterior doorways.  Observant Jews affix them to every doorway of every room in the house except the bathroom. 

This beautiful jeweled mezuzah will compliment any entrance in your home or office.
