David Weitzman and all of the Ka Gold Jewelry team would like to send you their love and hopes that things are working best for you in your life.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the last few months David has been working to learn an exciting technique of metal crafting called Mokume Gane. The Mokume Gane technique was developed in 17th century Japan, following the example of the layered metal technique found in the "katana" Samurai's sword. The literal meaning of Mokume Gane is "Metal that looks like knots in wood".
 
The production of Mokume is a long process that requires concentration and precision.

  

The use of The Mokume allows David as an artist to master the production of the material itself, and not just the usual process of working with prepared metals as in ordinary silver and gold crafting.
 
The Mokume rings are widely used as wedding rings, because of the symbolism reflected in the unification of the different metals, expressed in the merging of the two metals into one integrated texture that is simply breathtaking in its harmonious beauty.

Tsubas
The Tsuba reflected Japanese tradition and included traditional Japanese geometric models. The Tsubas included images from nature in accordance with Haiku poetry that describes a moment in time and traditional symbols that reflect courage, fidelity, diligence and clarity of thought.
 
David wrote about the Tsubas - "The Tsubas from my point of view represent the symbol of "The Diamond sword" from Zen philosophy". The Tsuba is a symbol of courage, fidelity and diligence.

 

   

 

 

Happiness pendant - child like pendant!

The pendant allows us to remember the forgotten moments of our childhood. It revives the eternal child that exists within all of us and is forgotten with the passing of the years.

Grace and Truth pendant
"Grace and truth champion (are superior to) gold and silver" was written by rabbi Nachman of Braslav as a good luck saying for abundance and success. Gold and silver function as symbol for abundance in the Jewish tradition. The concepts of "truth" and "grace" are mentioned together frequently. The accepted interpretation of these terms is: Truth - an obligatory fulfillment or a promise; Grace - a deed that is beyond obligation or promise
