Hebrew Aleph Letter Bead Sterling Silver | Jewish Alphabet | Judaica Jewelry | Made in USA
The Hebrew letter Aleph -- the first letter of the alphabet and a symbol of divine breath -- rendered as a solid .925 sterling silver bead, Made in USA. At 5.5 grams, this is a substantial piece of Judaica jewelry.
Cast using the 6,500-year-old lost-wax technique, each Aleph bead is individually formed from a hand-sculpted wax original. The raised letterform is then hand-polished through progressive stages -- rough filing, tripoli compound, rouge polish, and final buff -- producing crisp edges that make the character unmistakably legible.
Aleph represents the number one in Hebrew numerology and carries deep significance as the silent letter that precedes all speech. The three-dimensional bead format at 1/4 inch makes it ideal for stringing, and the solid silver construction means it will not tarnish or wear as quickly as plated alternatives. A sterling silver jump ring is included and attached.
Meaningful for bat and bar mitzvah gifts, Hebrew language students, Kabbalah enthusiasts, or anyone who wants to carry their Jewish heritage in wearable form. Pair with other Hebrew letter beads to spell names, dates, or words of personal significance.
