*Signet rings are used to make an impression in
sealing wax which authenticates documents or personal papers. The
design or words are right-reading in the impression but reversed
when viewed on the pendant.
**The Lost Wax casting method is a process whereby
a carved or cast wax original is
encased in clay or other investment, the
wax is melted under temperature and the
resulting voids are filled with molten metal.
The process has been used since early
Egyptian times for casting fine metals where
the highest level of detail was required. |
Beautifully crafted from sterling silver, this meaningful pendant
"asks after the peace of Jerusalem." The phrase, from the Book of Prophets,
signifies how one should ask or inquire from people who have traveled to Jerusalem
about the state of the city, and as well to pray for its peace and safety.
More than 500 years after these words were inscribed on the original
ring from which the pendant is derived, Jerusalem continues to search for its
peace. The need is there for all of us to keep asking, and taking actions, towards the peace of the
city and all its occupants.
Salaam - Shalom - Peace
