Auction 17
Lot 163:
Sawing work covered in velvet an fabric on cardboard. At the top is S.D.I, under which is the name of the homeowner (“Esther Abuhatzira”). Decorations done artistically with cutting and sawing work of floral figures. Made entirely of silver, as we can see it is most likely from the noted Abuhatzira family. Size: 24.5x16cm. Weight: 207g. Rare. Generally very good condition. The “jata dal mezuzah” is a handsome cover used by the Jews of Morocco to cover the mezuzah at the entrance to the home. One of the most important Judaica items found in a Moroccan home. The wife would customarily bring it home with her after the chuppah and place it in the home.
