The silver rimon consists of a shaft, a body and a head. The cylindrical shaft is encircled by a ring at its bottom. The shaft is surmounted by a spheroid capital. The shaft is decorated by two circumferential bands bearing three rhombuses with a floral pattern. The space between the rhombuses is filled with small stamped rhombuses. The wide bands are separated three thinner bands decorated with floral and geometrical patterns. The globular body is decorated with pointed arches flanked by cartouches, with floral and geometrical patterns. A band bearing a dedicatory inscription encircles the body's centere. It reads: !הקדישו לבית הכנסת חדש יזדים שבירושלים מאת עדת בית הכנסת נוזאם שביזד איראן! !Dedicated to the new Yazd synagogue in Jerusalem by the community of the Nozam synagouge in Yazd, Iran! The hyperboloid head is mounted over a spheroid collar, and the head is surmounted by a pointed cap. Eight chains hang from the cap carrying flat Stars of David. The head is decorated with pointed leaves bearing floral and geometrical patterns.
