Ink on parchment amulet “for love between a man and his wife” and for “marital harmony.”
Amulet designed to bind the heart of Nissim son of Regina to his wife Ellen daughter of Esther, with the Barchi Nafshi hymn, kabbalistic illustrations, angels’ names (including angels in charge of love). Written at the end: “May it be successful in the merit of Sharabi,” apparently referring to the kabbalist Rabbi Moshe Sharabi (the RaSha”Sh).
70 cm long thin parchment sheet. Slight peeling at the top of the parchment sheet with damage to text.
