Torah scroll with an ornate cover
05 May 2025
Description

This item appears to be an antique Torah scroll or ceremonial religious object of Jewish origin, accompanied by an ornate fabric cover embroidered with a gold Star of David and other traditional motifs. The item was found in a sealed or buried environment, and its origins are unknown to me. Based on visual inspection, the scroll and cover appear to be handmade, possibly from parchment and silk or velvet with gold thread. The scroll is currently unrolled and shows signs of aging, but remains largely intact. There may be some fading or wear consistent with age, though no significant damage is visible in the images provided. I do not know who created this piece or when it was made, and I have no documentation regarding its provenance. I am seeking expert evaluation to determine the authenticity, historical context, and potential value of this item.
