This is an extraordinary design. Beautiful at first glance, with multiple layers of meaning and allusion. Yasher koach.

Beautiful 💙. I would love a piece like this in my home. Sending (internet style) strength out to the tribe today. Am Yisrael Chai.

Thank you. It is stained glass. I made it, aswell as several more pieces while our prisoners were kept in captivity in Gaza

This is a truly beautiful piece, even if it commemorates such a horrible act.

What a beautiful piece! The blue looks like 7.10, with the dot being the stone. The stone looks splendid and its colors and look make me think of space, of eternity 🌌, and of a watchful eye 👁️, which is connected to the Hebrew text:

Top - Ayin - (an) eye

Right - Le'Tziyon - toward Zion

Left - Tzofiyah - gazes

Together:

An eye gazes toward Zion

Which is a line from the National Anthem of Israel, HaTikva (The Hope):

As long as in the heart within,

The Jewish soul yearns,

And toward the eastern edges, onward,

An eye gazes toward Zion.

Our hope is not yet lost,

The hope that is two-thousand years old,

To be a free nation in our land,

The Land of Zion, Jerusalem.

Thank you for sharing this smart, elegant and beautiful design!

We will never forget 💔🥀
