Authentic antique Italian Jewish solid silver wall amulet featuring the sacred Hebrew name “Shaddai” (שדי), beautifully executed with intricate hand chased decorative workmanship.


A fine example of Italian Judaica devotional art, created as a protective wall amulet intended for the Jewish home. The piece displays traditional Jewish symbolism and skilled silversmith craftsmanship characteristic of late 19th century Italian ceremonial silverwork.


The divine Hebrew name “Shaddai” has long been associated in Jewish tradition with spiritual protection and divine guardianship. Commonly appearing on mezuzot, amulets, and ceremonial objects, Shaddai inscriptions were believed to safeguard the household and its inhabitants.


Expertly handcrafted from solid silver using traditional hand chasing techniques, giving the surface rich dimensional ornamentation and refined artistic detail.


Such protective plaques and amulets were often displayed within the home near entrances or prayer areas as devotional and symbolic Judaica objects.


Comparable examples of Jewish silver amulets and Italian ceremonial Judaica can be found in museum collections dedicated to Jewish religious art and Mediterranean silversmith traditions.
