OUT  OF  THE  ATTIC

    I have often written in this Blog about the
importance of Jewish Heirlooms. Some are passed down from
generation to generation. Others we ourselves collect “along
the way,” and pass them on to our children and grandchildren
(and their descendants).

    I want to introduce you to a new potential heirloom,
which can also be a lot of fun. From my last Blog: “Jerusalem
Tiles www.etsy.com/shop/Jerusalemtile has just presented
their new line of miniature figurines called The GOLEM
Collection. Talk about an opportunity to start your own
Jewish Heirloom Collection! Twenty years from now, you will
proudly display your “vertical” collection and tell your
grandchildren how you got started way back in 2016.” This
idea found its way into modern Jewish “folklore” in the
famous GOLEM of Prague, which was said to be kept in the
attic. NOT ANY MORE! So now comes the fun part. Time to take
the GOLEM out of the Attic!

    So often we put old things away, not realizing how
precious are their memories. Then, in later years, we
discover so much nostalgia in re-opening that old box from
the attic. Did you ever wonder how they got into the attic in
the first place? Somebody started a collection. Now here is
your chance.

    This is more of what I recently Blogged:
    “The miniature Golem Collection has created an
adorable, elf-like clay creature. Its legendary, fabled,
anthropomorphic, hand-crafted design, is waiting for you, to
be your beloved fantasy, and enchanting guardian. Aside from
being a hot, iconic and magical minion-like one-of-a-kind
figurine, this individually sculpted, mystical and mythical
protector, will become your memorable good luck talisman,
revered for its storied, and poetic charm. It will grace your
garden, kitchen counter, or desk top. What a uniquely
enthralling gift to give to a friend and loved one. Every
Golem is fired twice, glazed and hand-decorated, to last a
lifetime, indoors or out. Inside the Golem, the artist has
created a “secret” place into which you can insert a small
piece of paper for: a prayer, a wish, a note to God, whatever
you decide to write.
    As the artist states, “Each one of my figures is hand
crafted, one of a kind. You don’t want to miss out on this
special miniature. Legend says it will watch over you, your
family, your garden and your house!”

Stand up for what is right even if you’re standing alone!
