Symbolic motifs abound in the Carmei Yerushalayim (Jerusalem Vineyards ) ketubah. Two peacocks (beauty) flanking a pomegranate tree (plenty) are bathed in golden light. The clusters ofgrapes surrounding the text remind us of the wine, which plays a central part of the wedding ceremony. Wine is symbolic of the life cycle. Just as the grape juice is transformed to something that improves with age, so may the marriage bring increasing joy throughout the years. Beneath the text is the city ofJerusalem, always cherished in our hearts and minds. The Carmei Yerushalayim paper-cut ketubah is a double-layered giclee print, hand-embellished with 24-karat gold.
