Mezuzah is a sacred Jewish prayer, a verse from the Torah, written on a parchment, rolled as a scroll, enclosed in a decorative case, to be affixed to the doorpost of the house for protection and blessings of the house and the people living in, or visiting it. Our Mezuzah cases are designed with ornamental motifs, beautifully and carefully detail-carved by hand in Rosewood. These decorative cases are sold without the prayer scroll (traditionally made by professional scribe and obtained separately from the case). The back of the case is an open hollow to place the scrolled blessing. Two nail holes for hanging, at top and bottom extensions.
