In Hebrew, there are five words that express the concept of ‘Crown’.  Atara is considered to be the highest expression, the name for the divine crown that a person receives when they ascend to the heavenly world.  By virtue of the care, prayer, attention to detail, and love that we put into our work we chose to call this harp the Atara Nevel as a symbol of its exceptional level of quality...Temple quality...

According to the sages, G-d created the world by singing it into existence with the twenty-two mystical letters of the Hebrew Aleph-Bet.  With the addition of these holy Hebrew letters hand-carved onto the soundboard along the strings, a new musical dimension opens…

                                    The Stones of the Twelve Tribes

 

During the time of the Temple ceremonies, the High Priest wore a special breastplate inlaid with twelve stones, each representing one of the tribes of Israel.  In this tradition, we offer semi-precious stones that are known to be associated with the Twelve Tribes inlaid in silver or gold.
