About the Item

This extraordinary, large-scale mezuzah is a rare and striking example of contemporary Judaica, crafted from sterling silver and brass. Measuring an impressive 24 centimeters long by 4 centimeters wide, this mezuzah embodies bold design with a commanding presence. The mezuzah features a sterling silver front panel, adorned near the top with a beautifully stylized Hebrew letter "Shin" (ש). At the lower end, a gracefully curved sterling silver loop cradles a black onyx stone, adding a touch of contrast and elegance. The brass scroll holder is secured with a cork stopper, showing signs of age, slight bends, and a small ding, as seen in the detailed photos. Marked “Sterling” and signed “Pica & Joan Adria Kahn”, this mezuzah bears a 1994 copyright date, indicating its creation in the late 20th century.

Jean-Louis Scherrer born in Paris in February. He was a Parisian fashion designer and couturier. Although he had name recognition and was known for his work, he is mainly noted for being the first couture designer to be sacked from their own-name label in 1992. Scherrer trained as a dancer at the Conservatoire de Paris until he injured his back, which put him out of action for three months. He then decided to focus on fashion design, and in 1956, joined Christian Dior as an assistant designer alongside Yves Saint Laurent. Following Dior's death in 1957, Scherrer worked under Saint Laurent, and then for Louis Féraud, before launching his own fashion house in 1962 on the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré with the backing of Jacques Chabrol, a French millionaire. In the mid-1960s Scherrer had an agreement with the American department store Bergdorf Goodman to grant them exclusive rights to reproduce and resell his designs in the United States. His clients included Anne-Aymone Giscard d'Estaing, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, and Raquel Welch, who wore Scherrer animal-print dresses in the 1977 film L'Animal. By the 1980s, his work was known for its opulence and luxury, with many garments hand-beaded, embroidered and lavishly trimmed. His extremely expensive designs were popular with the wealthy wives of Middle East oil tycoons, but after the Gulf War...
