Lot 400
Silver Miligree Megillah, Middle East, 18th Century. The Scroll of Esther is read every Purim in all synagogues. It was also a traditional gift of the betrothed to her future husband for use in the home. This is virtually identical to the Megillah pictured in figure 186 in Kanof's "Jewish Ceremonial Art." Length: 25.8cm. Very good condition, with complete parchment scroll.
Estimated Value $5,500 - 8,500.
From The Collection of Dr. Stephen Oppenheimer.
