This mezuzah mixes modern design with traditional imagery, depicting an art deco inspired tulip bud and bloom--an image of renewal. The durable pewter and solid, minimalist design make this an ideal outdoor mezuzah that will stand up to weathering. The traditional letter shin is incorporated cleverly in the bud of the flower. Designed and handcrafted in New England, this is a wonderful and practical gift for converts, newlyweds or for a housewarming.
