A gift to my Palestinian friend

Releases at: 07/05/2012

Now, here's something that you will never see anywhere. I made this pendant about a month ago. It's in Hebrew and believe it or not it is simply the name "Muhammad". Outside my workshop there is a bakery run by Arab Palestinians from East Jerusalem. During the past few months we have become good friends and about a week ago one of them wanted a pendant with his name. To my surprise he didn't want it in Arabic but in Hebrew. So this is a collaboration of two cultures which have unfortunately been caught up in a very violent "family feud" for over many centuries...
