This is the classic shofar that Jews in Yemen imported from Africa and blew on Rosh Hashanah for centuries, then brought with them to Israel. Much larger and more spiralled than standard European shofars, this imposing instrument makes a lasting impression!
The entire shofar is beautifuly polished while its sound is crisp and pure. All of our shofars are crafted according to ancient tradition while utilizing modern methods to produce some of the highest quality shofars in Israel. Makes a fantastic gift!
All of our shofars are produced to a high standard and meet all the requirements of Jewish Law. As shofars are a natural product, each one is completely unique, so the exact size and color of the shofar that you receive may vary slightly from the one shown in the picture above. If your desired shofar is out of stock, we will send a larger shofar at exactly the same price!
Mentioned throughout Jewish sources, the sound of the shofar was historically used at various times, including at the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai. Today, the shofar is used on the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, when that same sound has the unique power to wake up our soul to the presence of its Infinite source, and to renew a vision of the spiritual connection we are meant to build in this world.
