OLD STAR of DAVID and SHIN from MEZUZAH, LITZMANNSTADT in POLAND
An old mezuzah featuring the Star of David and Shin, originating from Litzmannstadt in Poland. It is hand-made, representing a highly intricate craft. As an example, we have included a mezuzah with the same components. The purpose of the mezuzah is to serve as a constant reminder of God's presence, and it's common for Jews to touch it as they pass through the door.
CONDITION: Very good condition for its age. For further information, please refer to the pictures.
PROVENANCE: 1. Passed down through a Jewish emigree family in the USA, Sunrise, Florida, (originally from Lodz-Litzmannstadt, Poland); 2. eBay, USA, August 04, 2016, Lot 131888759585 (the winner will receive this information); 3. Our sale of this item adds another layer of provenance (please print this page). History of sale is very IMPORTANT for serious collection.
DIMENSIONS: star: 30 x 30 x 1 mm (1 1/4 x 1 1/4 x 1/10 inches). Shin: 18 x 18 x 1 mm (3/4 x 3/4 x 1/10 inches).
ESTIMATED PRICE: $50 - $200 (significantly lower than today's market price).
WARRANTY: The buyer has 3 days to inspect items for originality, valued at up to $5,000, and 5 days for items valued at $5,000 or more. Items can be returned to the seller for a refund; please refer to the Terms for more details.
NO RESERVE: Most of the auctioned items have NO reserve price or have reserve prices set at incredibly low levels, typically ranging from 30-40% of the low estimate price.
PAYMENT: Payment can be made with a Credit Card, Zelle, PayPal (for international bidders), Wire Transfer, Check, or Money Order. You can also suggest other methods of payment. Canadian winners can make payments to a Canadian Bank in CAD via Check, Money Order, Wire Transfer, or Interac e-Transfer.

MEZUZAH: A Mezuzah comprises a piece of parchment called a klaf contained in a decorative case and inscribed with specific Hebrew verses from the Torah (Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:13-21). These verses consist of the Jewish prayer Shema Yisrael, beginning with the phrase: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord (is) our God, the Lord is One'. In mainstream Rabbinic Judaism, a Mezuzah is affixed to the doorpost of Jewish homes to fulfill the mitzvah (Biblical commandment) to 'write the words of God on the gates and doorposts of your house' (Deuteronomy 6:9). Some interpret Jewish law to require a Mezuzah in every doorway in the home except bathrooms (which is not a living space), laundry rooms and closets, if they are too small to qualify as rooms.
