Yair Emanuel Jewelry Box - Jerusalem (medium)

Size: 5" x 3.2" x 1.6" / 12.7 x 8 x 4 cm

We are proud to present an exciting line of Artistic Judaica by Yair Emanuel.

Artist Yair Emanuel, a graduate of the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, lives and works in Jerusalem. Born in Kibbutz Sha'alavim, he grew up in an Orthodox home and later in life adopted a more pluralistic approach to Judaism. This background influenced Emanuel's style of Judaic art, which is based upon a fusion of traditional motifs and ancient Jewish manuscripts with modern and Oriental art. Vivid and harmonious colors as well as a mixture of the old and the new characterize Emanuel's work, which is designed and crafted in his Jerusalem studio.

The principal techniques utilized encompass painting on silk, hand-embroidery, raw-silk appliqué and painting on wood.
