WHY DO YOU NEED A GOLEM IN YOUR LIFE?

Jerusalem Tiles www.etsy.com/shop/Jerusalemtile has just presented their new line of miniature figurines called The GOLEM Collection.

But you may ask, “Why do I need a GOLEM in my life?” and what does this have to do with Jewish Heirlooms? To which there are several important answers:

1. Everyone needs someone or something to protect them, their home and their loved ones. A GOLEM is a symbol that was created to protect the Jewish people, so therefore why not have one to protect your people that you love.
2. A GOLEM can sit on your kitchen window sill or on your desk. S/he will make you smile and remind you of your family, your country, or your beliefs.
3. A GOLEM makes the perfect gift to those you love. It sends the message of caring and love as well as puts a smile on the face of the receiver of this fun gift.
4. A GOLEM can sit outside your home or garden as a warning “This house and or garden is protected.” It warns those who may come that there is something special or magical here and they should respect the grounds and those who live within.
5. A GOLEM represents your faith, your country and your family. It is a way of saying “this is important to me, this is what I hold dear, this is what I believe in.”
6. A GOLEM can be personalized with your name, your family’s names, or the name of the person to whom you give a GOLEM. It can express a feeling you want to convey like “Peace, Joy, Love, etc.”
7. A GOLEM carries a secret place inside, for you to write a message, a prayer or a belief. On this paper rolled inside you can express a personal feeling or idea you want to hold on to, or share with the person to whom you give the GOLEM.
8. A GOLEM will become a Jewish Heirloom the moment you set it up inside or outside of your home or office, because it is a Jewish symbol which can be passed on to future generations.

These GOLEMs will make a perfect gift for Hanukkah, Bar and Bat Mitzvot, Weddings and more. What a great opportunity to start your own Jewish Heirloom Collection! Twenty years from now, you will proudly display your “vertical” collection and tell your grandchildren how, and most importantly WHY, you started collecting GOLEMS way back in 2016.
