Bring the soul of Jerusalem into your home with this unique, handcrafted papercut — a sacred circle where art, tradition, and prayer meet.

This one-of-a-kind design features intricate papercutting layered over a hand-painted background, capturing the essence of Jerusalem with the Beit HaMikdash at its center and a dove soaring above — a timeless symbol of peace, spirit, and hope.

At the heart of the piece, you will find the powerful verse:
“אם אשכחך ירושלים תשכח ימיני” – “If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill.”
A timeless declaration of love and longing for the holy city.

Adding to its richness, the rooftops of Jerusalem are hand-painted in shimmering gold — a tribute to the beloved song “Yerushalayim Shel Zahav” (Jerusalem of Gold) — evoking the glowing light and sacred beauty that has inspired generations.

A poetic tribute to faith and memory, this piece evokes the eternal beauty of Jerusalem and makes a meaningful gift for loved ones or a cherished addition to your own space.
