Sacred and Ritual Objects Torah mantle, Greece
The trapezoid Torah mantle comprises a cloak with a vertical back opening attached to a round top.
A dedication is embroidered on its central front in square filled letters, which reads:
"הקדש/ לעי"נ (לעילוי נשמת) מ'(רת) פלור(ה) נ"ע (נוחה עדן)/ כ"ת (כתר תורה) מה(רב) יאודה ב(ן) שאקי/ הי"ו (ה' ישמרהו ויחיהו) היום ט' תשרי/ ש(נת) התרע"ט."
"A dedication for the repose of the soul of Flora, may she rest in Eden. (This) Torah crown (mantle; was dedicated) by Rabbi Judah son of Shaky, may the Lord sustain and protect him, today, the ninth of Tishrei, the year 5679 (15.9.1918)."
The round top has two openings for the Torah staves. A fringed strip surrounds the top and bottom edges of the cloak.
