Torah pointer (Yad)

Pointer called a Yad, “hand” in Hebrew, used to follow the reading of the Torah and, in this manner, not touch the hand directly on the sacred parchment. The Yad is always capped by a small hand with its index finger pointing from it. Lent in memory of Antonietta T. Feffer and Leon Feffer. Silver object topped by a spherical structure in the shape of a bulb ornamented by phytomorphic motifs, with a welded ring through which a chain hangs at the end. It nfolds into a hexagonal stem, in the middle of which is a second bulb with phytomorphic decoration. The stem ends in a small bulb that in turn ends in a hand with a ring on the extended indicator finger.
