One of our favorite artists, Danny Azoulay, is admired near and far. One of his many beautiful ketubot, the Gardens Ketubah, was the chosen ketubah for a wonderful newlywed couple.
The happy couple, Sara and Yonah Veffer, were married on November 8, 2011 in Beit Shemesh, Israel.
The Gardens Ketubah displays two
trees, strong and tall, which flank a tranquil garden. Their branches
gracefully reach upwards towards the sky and each other. They are
joined by the arc of a rainbow sheltering a golden menorah. Beneath,
the words, "I am my Beloved's and my Beloved is mine – Ani l'dodi v'dodi
li" form a bridge connecting these two trees.
A beautiful allegoric visualization of the marriage ceremony, the
delicate paper cut ketubah is embellished with hand applied 24 karat
gold leaf.
Danny Azoulay's papercut ketubot are intricate and exquisite pieces of art.
Azoulay creates each ketubah in Jerusalem, and each ketubah is
dated, numbered and signed by the artist and is one of a limited
edition. It not only imbues the marriage ceremony with beauty, but is an
artwork to be lastingly treasured by future generations.
Each ketubah made by Danny Azoulay will serve as a new
couple's first family heirloom.
