Framed Star of David Art

The Star of David was used often at the beginning of the 19th century, as the Jewish communities went to great lengths to find the symbol that would represent their community. Its origins go way behind, with the first stars being used by Kabbalists for protection and it was also known as the Seal of Solomon. Interesting enough, it also featured in many Christian churches and it served decorative purposes long before being introduced to Jewish synagogues. Framed Star of David Art brings this powerful symbol back in the spotlight, once again serving the purpose of decorating interiors.

The Jewish community embraced the Star of David at the end of the 19th century and it even appeared at the Zionist congresses. Today the state of Israel uses the symbol on the flag and many of the Framed Star of David Art depicted in the same blue color on a white background. While the symbol is generally popular with all Jewish communities, some Orthodox groups refuse to use it, due to its former association with magic.
