A Pair of Embroidered Signs – Europe, 1839
A pair of embroidered signs. the exact use of the signs is unknown; it is possible that they were used in the synagogue - raised during prayer or other religious ceremonies. [Germany?], 1839.
Wood; tin; metal net; threads; fabric.
Rectangular signs made of a tin frame and thin rope, in the center appears an embroidered Psalms verse on a thin metal net, within a frame embroidered with golden threads, in triangular patterns. the back is covered with thin fabric. Black handles, engraved with nice engravings and decorated with gold.
Embroidered on one sign is a verse from Psalms 51:20 and on the second sign a verse (according to Psalms 102:17) and the year – 1839. An additional word is embroidered on both signs, in Latin characters (not clear, maybe – Psalm?).
Size of signs: 18X23.5 cm; handles: 24 cm. Fair-good condition. Some embroidery is damaged. Stains. Flaking to plating of tin frame, and minor tears to fabric. Restored breaks to handles.
