Hand Tzedakah Box
$1,450.00
Description
Modeled by Elyse Hradecky, our Hand Tzedakah Box is a striking piece inspired by a visit to Prague in 1991, where the first such box was seen. Unlike the fabricated hollow arm observed in Prague, our box is solid cast bronze, making it imposing and visually captivating. The gesture of the hand, with its slotted design, speaks for itself – it symbolizes the act of giving.
This piece serves both as a substantial sculpture and a functional item for collecting donations. It is an ideal gift for synagogues or homes, adding a touch of elegance and significance to any space.
A Sterling Silver plate with a quote by Albert Schweitzer is affixed to the base, further enhancing its meaning:
“Example is not the main thing in influencing others. It is the only thing.” – Albert Schweitzer
All items are enclosed in 100% boiled wool keeps. A gift box with a sterling silver FJ button and card are included.
