A Silver and Wedgewood Torah Pointer by Daniel Blumberg, Pennsylvania 1959
Located in New York, NY
A Unique Silver and Wedgewood Jasperware Torah Pointer made by Daniel Blumberg in Pennsylvania in 1959.

Decorated with a gilded ring embellished with pearl-colored stones as the handle tapers smoothly down to the shaped vintage sleeve...
