לוחות שם
A person receives a name from his parents as an amazing talisman for life. In the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) and our Tradition, each name is meaningful and significant. Like the words of the Holy language of the biblical prophets, each name has a numerological dimension called Gematria.
To create these personalized parchments, Avraham Borshevsky creatively uses the wonderful letters of the ancient and modern Hebrew alphabets.
Some of the names are written with a quill and simple black ink, others are painted with a paintbrush and decorated with filigree ornaments and genuine gold. Here are parchments on which is written in Hebrew letters:
-
name only
-
name with a biblical blessing
-
name as part of a biblical verse
The unique texture of each piece of natural parchment emphasizes the uniqueness of the person to whom this work is addressed. This is an unforgettable original gift from Israel, which is presented to dear and excellent people.
