Description
Torah crown (Hebrew: Keter Torah) crafted as a bow crown with colourful glass stones. The crown band consists of two narrow bands with stylised punched gemstones. Between them is a wider, curved band with floral and rocaille decoration, onto which the glass stones are applied. A zigzag band serves as the upper finish, some of the zigzags decorated with petals. Three brackets with embossed stylised gemstones are attached to the band, and the brackets are also decorated with colourful glass stones. At the top, the brackets are held together by a cap with a ball. A small bell is attached inside.
