"Since I first heard the Apache blessing years ago, I had wanted to incorporate it into a ketubah design. My ideas evolved several times until I was finally satisfied with what I think is one of my best works." - M.P.
This design symbolically illustrates the beauty and poignancy of the Apache wedding blessing set in English and Hebrew at the top of the parchment. The intertwining havdalah candle signifies the one life formed between bride and groom upon marriage, and its light emanates warmth within the grand copper shelter that protects from rain and cold.
