Priestly Breastplate Pendant in Sterling Silver, Medium
“Fashion a breastpiece for making decisions, the work of skilled hands… Then mount four rows of precious stones on it.” (Exodus 28:15-17)
God instructed Aaron the High Priest to wear upon his chest a breastplate mounted with twelve different gems, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. In Hebrew it is called the Choshen. Tradition holds that the High Priest wore it when seeking God’s will, and that the glittering of the stones signified God’s favor.
This medium pendant recreates the breastplate in sterling silver with multicolored zircons. It is a striking piece of biblical jewelry and a meaningful gift for a student of Scripture.
