The Noble Desert Ship: Camel Ketubah

The Noble Desert Ship: Camel Ketubah

Camels are often referred to as desert ships, due to their endurance and strength, without which men in the desert would be powerless. Camel is one of the few animals that can endure the harsh desert conditions, which has made it the main association to the desert, as well as patience and perseverance. It is hard to even imagine an animal as steady and calm as a camel; an animal that endures a great deal of sacrifice and hardship while remaining calm and composed. In the face of grueling life conditions, a camel preserves its grace and beauty. Although the first camel species that comes to mind is Arabian, there are also Bactrian and Asian, which differ greatly in size.

In different cultures, a camel also stands for different symbolisms which have various interpretations. For instance, in Arabian culture and tradition, a camel stands for power, wealth, and money. A person who has a camel in their possession is considered wealthy, as camels represent much more than a desert vehicle for them.

In Qatar, a camel is also viewed as a symbol of wealth and prosperity. On the other hand, in both Chinese and Iranian cultures, camels have been linked to a mystical creature – dragon. According to their beliefs, camels and dragons share unique energy and spiritual power. Furthermore, as far as Christian tradition is concerned, a camel signifies dignity, as well as modesty.

When it comes to generally accepted, non-cultural representation of camels, they have often been associated with traveling, especially when it comes to exotic trips and long distances. Furthermore, as far as spirituality is concerned, camels may stand for a long spiritual journey that each of us takes on. On this journey, we might come across many obstacles and setbacks, but a camel represents endurance and persistence on that path. What’s more, a camel stands for hope, that even though the road is long and weary, we’ll be able to make it to the finish line.

The Sahara Dunes ketubah is a magnificent camel ketubah piece that will take your breath away. Aside from the strong camel symbolism dominating throughout this ketubah design, it also combines many other aspects. This camel ketubah design is a perfect choice for couples who share a love for the desert, as well as its mystical and romantic atmosphere. The color scheme and overall esthetics of this ketubah contribute to the sensual, yet strong symbolism of this piece.

The Language of Love: Musical Notes

The Language of Love: Musical Notes

Regardless of their beliefs, gender, or nation, everyone is able to understand the universal language of love written in musical notes. No matter the language, music is not even meant to be understood, but rather felt – and that’s where the magic happens. Many people will agree that they cannot imagine a single day without their favorite tunes, as music helps them wake up in the morning, survive through a grueling workout, or snap back from a dark place. Certain compositions are considered priceless, since they’ve impacted the lives of so many people and made it into history.

When you think of music, there are probably jams that make you reminisce of certain times in your life and make you relive those moments all over again, which is one of the biggest impacts music has on people’s lives. Some people swear by certain albums and songs, not being able to fall in love with new music. Others have found one special song that has stuck for years and that could be considered the soundtrack of their life. If you could choose a single tune, which song would accompany your life the best? There’s a little something to think about.

Another important aspect of music is the way it connects people, breaking boundaries and reaching far beyond the limits. Musical notes are often more powerful than words will ever be, which can be experienced in concerts and music festivals. You’ll see thousands of people breathing, dancing, and singing as one – united by these magical musical notes. In those moments, all that matters is music, and all differences are set aside.

Musical notes are also often used to send a strong message, which could be witnessed throughout the history of music. The expression where words stop, music begins is more than accurate, since many words that could not be said and feelings that could not be expressed saw the light of the day in the form of musical notes.

Our Paper Tunes design inspired by musical notes is an ideal choice for musicians and music lovers, featuring strong music symbolism, as well as a seamless blend of whites and blues. The aesthetically pleasing color scheme of this ketubah design, along with music symbols including musical notes, contributes to the overall meaning of this special ketubah.

Love Through Time: Ketubahs by Decade

Love Through Time: Ketubahs by Decade

Looking back, many things have changed in the past few decades, and various aspects of life have undergone major alternations. Nevertheless, there are certain values that persist and remain unchanged in any decade, such as the importance of friendship, respect, unity, and above all – love, in all its shapes and forms. Therefore, it is safe to conclude that, regardless of the decade one’s living in, the mentioned values represent the very essence of life, and an unbreakable bond between all people, ages, and periods. Today, we’re going for a quick trip through time, remembering some of the most memorable characteristics of the past decades, keeping in mind that love represents their mutual force.

How would one sum up the decade of the ’60s? This era certainly brought a great deal of turmoil and turbulence, but it is mostly remembered for the fight for individual freedom, popular music festivals, and the explosion of rock’n’roll which may have marked the culture of this decade more than anything else. Many still cherish the fashion choices of this decade, including tie-dye fabrics, mop-top haircuts, and the expansion of bikinis.

It is safe to say that the decade of the ’70s brought upon a series of groundbreaking scientific discoveries, especially when it comes to space exploration (remember the two fascinating lunar landings that marked the history of the mankind). In addition, big steps were taken in the world of technology, especially regarding computers. Women particularly respect this decade for the birth of true feminism and the beginning of the sexual revolution.

The decade of the ’80s brought further exploration and progress when it comes to both space flights and technology, which pretty much marked this era, as well. When it comes to pop culture, without a doubt, Madonna and Michael Jackson are the two names that defined this decade.

Looking back, it may seem that the decade of the ’90s has left the deepest, most prominent mark, given that it has heavily influenced today’s trends. As far as culture is concerned, many movements and discoveries considered crucial in the modern age started in the ’90s, including hip hop, cable television, and even the Internet.

Lungs of Our Planet – Ketubah with Trees

Lungs of Our Planet – Ketubah with Trees

You’ll often hear people referring to trees as the essence of life and our most important investment, as they’re keeping us and our planet alive. Trees pretty much represent the lungs of the Earth, considering their immense role in air production. Without trees, there would be no humans, which is something we should all remind ourselves and our loved ones.

Also, you’ve probably heard of the rule of the thumb that for every tree cut down, three should be planted in order to maintain the optimal number of trees and give back to nature in a way. As forgetful as we can be about the importance of trees and nature in general, it is in everyone’s best interest that we prioritize the state of nature at this point.

There’s really no need to go into details when it comes to the importance of trees for our ecosystem. Nevertheless, before we dive into more abstract symbolism, it is important to remember that trees, as well as nature in general, require our utmost respect and attention.

In many cultures and traditions, trees have been cherished and adored for centuries. First and foremost, trees stand as a symbol of strength and growth, due to obvious reasons. In addition, trees have also symbolized resurrection and the ability to start over in life, while also having important roles in various religious and spiritual rituals, texts, and customs. What’s more, trees have been linked to eternal wisdom, as they are able to witness numerous events, changes, and moments that are considered monumental.

Trees also stand for a deep connection between all people, regardless of their age, social status, and other characteristics, as they live on for numerous generations to enjoy.

A Pink Dream: Flamingo Ketubah

A Pink Dream: Flamingo Ketubah

Needless to say, there are many animals that never cease to impress us with their beauty, grace, and uniqueness – and flamingos are certainly one of them. Known for that bright pink color, flamingos are used to attention and gasps of people, as they are truly breathtaking. It is impossible not to notice them, and it is certainly impossible not to love them – as flamingos are extremely friendly, approachable, and above all peaceful animals. In addition, due to their soothing nature and extravagant exterior, flamingos have inspired numerous artists, as well as clothing, design, interior, and many other artistic aspects.

The name flamingo actually comes from Spanish flamengo, which translates to flame-colored. Even though flamingos are indeed pink and not red, the brightness and vibrancy of their feathers obviously reminded ancient people of flames. Even though flamingos are believed to always be pink, there are also flamingo species in other colors and shades, resembling the “prototypical” American flamingo in size and shape.

Besides breathtaking beauty and grace, flamingos have also been associated with a dose of mystery. As you could notice if you ever had a chance to see flamingos, they usually stand on one leg while keeping the other one tucked beneath their bodies. Many have tried to find a reasonable explanation for this phenomenon related to flamingos, but there is no widely accepted theory. One of the possibilities for flamingos acting this way is that they’re able to conserve more body heat.

Another interesting theory surrounding flamingos is that their posture – that being standing on one leg – makes them a symbol of stability and balance through life. Even on one leg, they’re still able to preserve their graceful stance and confidence. Given their uniqueness and extraordinary exterior, flamingos also represent individuality and diversity that everyone should embrace and truly be proud of.

If you’re a fan of flamingos, or you simply enjoy their aesthetics and symbolism, our Flamingos In Love ketubah design is without a doubt a perfect choice for you. This particular ketubah design captures everything that flamingos represent: their beauty, uniqueness, vibrancy, as well as their eye-catching hot pink colored feathers. On the other hand, we also have a romantic aspect as this ketubah design portrays two flamingos in love, representing unity and love of your marriage. Of course, this flamingo ketubah design is also a perfect representative of modern art, the influence of which exists in all our ketubah pieces.

Unity in Diversity: India Ketubah

Unity in Diversity: India Ketubah

India truly is an epitome of diversity, offering so much in many different aspects of life, including wildlife, nature, sights, history, tradition, as well as entertainment. Some would say that it takes a lifetime to truly get acquainted with India’s diversity, since there are so many things to see, so many stories to hear, and so many events to witness. Although in media the image of India may be limited to cuisine and Bollywood, the truth is that this country is truly an extremely complex notion, and its uniqueness and beauty stretch far beyond what may be considered mainstream.

Of course, we cannot start a story about India without touching upon its rich culture, which is actually one of the oldest cultures in the world. India’s diversity is clearly recognized in its culture, since there are approximately 22 official languages in this country, while 400 other languages are spoken in different parts and among different groups of people. Furthermore, it is in India that many cultures and religions were born, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, as well as Jainism. Therefore, it is safe to say that many nations could discover their roots in the mystical land of India.

Needless to say, India’s movie production known as Bollywood, based in Mumbai, is famous around the globe. Bollywood movies are unique, dramatic, often inspiring, and packed with catchy songs and characteristic tunes.

While exploring India, one cannot resist but be in absolute awe with its breathtaking architecture. India is, without a doubt, a land of temples, which makes it particularly interesting for spiritual people. Some of the most beautiful temples of India include Golden temple, Akshardham temple, ISCKON temple, Sanchi Stupa, and many others.

Speaking of architecture, Taj Mahal is considered to be a symbol of India, and it is also one of the eight wonders of the world. What makes Taj Majal so captivating is not only its undeniable beauty and luxury, but also the story behind it. It was the emperor Shah Jahan who built the Taj Majal, dedicating it to his adored wife. Today, Taj Majal stands not only as a symbol of India, but as an embodiment of love.

The Konkan India ketubah design was inspired by Bene Jews, as India has been their home for centuries, long before the Expulsion from Spain. This particular India inspired ketubah design portrays the classical Bene Israel ketubah style, enriched with vivid, bright colors.

Impressionist Ketubah: A Glimpse of Beauty

Impressionist Ketubah: A Glimpse of Beauty

They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and if that is true, the eye of an impressionist artist is impatient, wandering, and eager to discover the world. When you take a close look at the work of impressionists, you will notice that the colors are smudged, objects are hardly recognizable, and the entire scenery seems blurred, faded, and almost foggy. Many would agree that the opus of impressionists resembles a daydream, an unfinished fantasy, and that single split second between being awake and asleep. While some may not understand the beauty of impressionism, others deeply connect with this artistic wave, understanding that we do not need to see something clearly to perceive and cherish its magnitude.

Impressionism was born in France, in the 19th century, and its birth was truly monumental since it broke many European artistic conventions and paved the way for many different views in art. What Impressionists decided to do was incorporate scientific research into their work, discovering a whole new dimension that wasn’t touched upon before. The technique of Impressionists was what set impressionism aside from all the other artistic movements, since they focused on small touches as opposed to bold strokes in their painting.

The sole purpose of Impressionists’ work is capturing and portraying a scenery or an object as seen through someone’s eyes if they were to only catch a glimpse of it. Therefore, impressionism lacks focus, explicit detailing, and sharpness, which was one of the main reasons for traditional and conventional painters to critique Impressionists. However, color, vibrancy, and vividness certainly do not lack in the work of Impressionists, as the inspiration for these pictures were mostly the outdoor imagery, animals, people, and nature in general. Later on, another unique movement developed from impressionism – pointillism, which utilized small dots to illustrate the perspective of a picture seen from afar.

The Evening Doves ketubah is one of the designs inspired by impressionism, namely the work of a famous artist, Marc Chagall, known for incorporating various Jewish motifs. This Impressionist inspired ketubah design portrays two doves in love, emphasizing the magic and uniqueness of their relationship. In addition, this particular Impressionist ketubah design celebrates the unity of two people in love, capturing the romance, closeness, and devotedness. Needless to say, the Impressionist characteristics and details aren’t lacking, as bold, smudged colors and a foggy night scenery represent the essence of this piece. Make sure to check out our Impressionist ketubah collection for more enchanting ketubah pieces!

A Symbol of Forever: Ketubah with Rings

A Symbol of Forever: Ketubah with Rings

Since love is considered to be a mutual feeling, the energy between two people, and a vibration that cannot be seen, tasted, or physically felt, it is hard to find its tactile manifestation. Many would disagree, naming various instances, such as butterflies in the stomach or other abstract notions as physical manifestations of love, but we could all agree that the rings newlyweds exchange at the wedding ceremony would be the best answer. Each of the rings represents their commitment towards one another, their sacred vows and promises that have now gained a physical form.

If you’re a Lord of the Rings fan, you may be familiar with a rather unique, special symbolism around rings. In the movies, that special, One Ring stood for unshakeable commitment to a longsome journey on which people connect and create unbreakable bonds. In case you’re passionate about Lord of the Rings, a ketubah with rings could be the best choice for you, given that it could symbolize togetherness, connectedness, and unity against all odds – just like in the movies.

Diving into the historical background of the meaning of rings, we can find many different representations and perceptions. For instance, in Egypt, rings were symbols of eternity, as men gave their women a ring as a symbol of immortal love. In Roman culture, rings were created from more durable, strong materials such as leather and bone, and later iron, which were also used by men to “claim” their chosen woman.

When it comes to Irish culture, there is a traditional ring known as the Claddagh, decorated with a representation of two hands holding a heart with a crown. This specific ring is not only a wedding ring in Ireland; it can also be given as a symbol of friendship. As far as its specific design is concerned, the two hands in the texture of the ring represent unity, the heart symbolizes love, while the crown is perceived as a strong symbol of loyalty.

Go Pop ketubah with rings is an extremely unorthodox, eye-catching design that represents modern art at its best. Influenced by a popular pop art artist Brian Donnelly, this ketubah with rings truly represents one of our boldest designs, only daring, unique couples will set their eyes on. Some view marriage, commitment, and rings as symbols of love through more conventional, traditional eyes, but for this ketubah, we wanted to go overboard and create something spectacular! Make sure to check out our special ketubah with rings collection.

Wear Your True Colors with Pride: Peacock Ketubah

Wear Your True Colors with Pride: Peacock Ketubah

Just like many other animals, a peacock stands for different concepts in different cultures, and its symbolism is very rich and diverse all over the world. Even without knowing anything about the meaning of peacock in cultures of different countries, just by looking at this glorious animal, we could conclude that it could stand for beauty, confidence, pride, and dominance. It is safe to say that peacocks belong to the group of some of the most fascinating animals that could wow just about anyone without necessarily trying to be impressive. That eye-catching, breath-taking aura comes naturally to peacocks, who can make everyone stop and stare by revealing a gorgeous array of their colorful feathers.

Throughout history, people have viewed the symbolism and meaning of peacocks differently. Starting with Hinduism, a peacock has often been portrayed with Lakshmi – their goddess of compassion, gratitude, and good fortune, which resulted in peacock having the same attributes. In addition, mythology has also associated a peacock with a god of rain, who was thought to bring new life to the Earth and cleanse it through rain and thunder. What’s more, a peacock’s “dance” is believed to “summon” the rain.

The mythology of ancient Greece, on the other hand, views the meaning of a peacock in a rather unique way. Fascinated by the magnificent range of colors in a peacock’s tail, they found it to represent the eyes of the stars. In fact, the ancient Greek goddess Hera would punish anyone who would kill a peacock in the cruelest way. Furthermore, the philosophy of the alchemists finds that a peacock is an earthly form of a Phoenix rising from the ashes, symbolizing rebirth and power. Also, given the fact that peacocks kill snakes, often associated with malice, death, and sickness, many cultures and philosophies celebrate them as protectors, and bearers of positive, healing energy.

Once broken or damaged, a peacock’s beautiful feathers grow back, without any traces of harm. Therefore, a peacock represents new beginnings, the strength to rise from bad circumstances and continue fighting through life proudly.

The Regal Peacocks ketubah portrays these beautiful animals in all their colorful, mesmerizing glory. In this design, we have a pair of gorgeous peacocks which represent the romantic element each and every of our ketubah designs incorporate. This particular peacock ketubah design combines both the artistic value of modern art which is an integral part of all of our designs, and the symbolism of peacocks. Make sure to visit our gallery for more peacock ketubah designs!

Gentle Giant’s Grace – Giraffe Ketubah

Gentle Giant’s Grace – Giraffe Ketubah

Giraffe – Africa’s “gentle giant” is literally what the nickname describes: a gigantic animal that may seem terrifying, but only for a couple of seconds. Giraffes are known for their gentleness, tenderness, and grace. Even though they truly are giants, the behavior of a giraffe does not reflect its strength and dominance over other animals. While some would expect them to showcase brutality and viciousness due to their size, there isn’t a single trace of malice in the character of a giraffe, which makes them absolutely loveable and adorable. Whether a giraffe is your favorite animal, or you’re interested in their symbolism, we will not neglect either aspect.

Many associate giraffes with magnificent beauty, as they are truly breathtaking. Their large eyes and long eyelashes have become a symbol of beauty, inspiring many artists and works of art. Aside from the obvious beauty they possess, giraffes are also seen as majestic creatures which possess incredible soothing energy.

Once again, we have to mention the eyes of a giraffe, which signify purity and hope. Due to the calm, nowhere near aggressive nature of the giraffe, they have been associated with peace, and given that they’re particularly silent animals, they also represent shyness and reservedness. On the other hand, the 20-inch-long tongue of the giraffe has been described as a symbol of eloquence in some cases. The first association to a giraffe must be elegance, its incredible poise, and almost intoxicating aura.

In certain cultures, a giraffe stands for limitless knowledge. Some people believe that a giraffe can see into heavens since its neck stretches through the clouds, so they can take a peek at hidden cosmic plans. The long neck also allows the giraffe to spot the danger and change the location once they’ve been threatened, which makes a giraffe the symbol of awareness. Finally, giraffe’s ability to see higher than the majority of creatures may signify one’s determination to see past the hardships and negativity towards a brighter future.

Onto Noah’s Ark ketubah design is a perfect representative of our unique style and determination to blend the modern and the traditional together. Here we have a beautiful representation of the animals entering the Noah’s Ark – the most prominent being giraffes, in all their glory and grace. What makes this giraffe ketubah piece stand out is a bold mix of vibrant colors and prominent patterns which give it a whole new dimension.

Leave Your Mark On The World: Fingerprint Ketubah

Leave Your Mark On The World: Fingerprint Ketubah

Leaving your fingerprint on a document may seem like a mere technicality – something to be recognized by other than your name; something to facilitate your identity in the world. How could something so technical and official as a fingerprint hide a strong symbolism? If you’re a fan of our ketubah designs for quite a while you’re already familiar with our philosophy, but if you’re just getting to know our vision, it is important to state that we’re far from traditional, and nowhere near conventional. We let our imagination run wild with ketubah designs and inspiration we pick for each of them – one category being the fingerprint ketubah collection. If you’re interested to discover more about our take on the symbolism of fingerprints, then keep on reading.

There aren’t two people in the world, not even identical twins, that are sharing the very same fingerprint. Can you imagine that? Over 7 billion people in the world, and not two identical fingerprints – that is a notion hard to process. Unique fingerprints may be one of the strongest proofs of our originality and uniqueness. Even if some people resemble each other, have similar interests or fears, they’re still individuals, separate souls who should celebrate their uniqueness and individuality – symbolized by a one-of-a-kind fingerprint. And no, that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t feel connected to each other – it’s just that each of us has something new and different to bring to the table, which is represented by a fingerprint. We could imagine that each of our traits, both qualities and flaws, is represented by the tiny lines in our fingerprint.

So, if a fingerprint stands for individuality, why incorporate it into ketubah designs, which should stand for unity, togetherness, and sharing? Well, the truth is that we should not lose that special spark, that unreplicable uniqueness that exists in each and every one of us, even when deciding to spend our lives together. Only by accepting each other the way we are and letting each grow while being together can we know the true meaning of love – and that’s what fingerprint ketubah is all about.

The Oak ketubah design takes the symbolism of a fingerprint to a whole new level, by incorporating the significance of your wedding guests. Firstly, the oak design includes two birds – symbolizing love and marriage, while the oak stands for their shelter and support in life – their loved ones. This particular ketubah design is part of our special fingerprint collection, allowing your loved ones to imprint their own fingerprints – becoming an eternal part of this monumental event in your lives.
