The Shofar is just beautifully polished, and the colors are so subtle. It is a wonderful piece of Judaica. I had initially ordered the Shofar anticipating it would arrive along with the rest of my order — way before Easter; however, when I realized that the Shofar had to be shipped form Israel (I thought World of Judaica had a location within the continental U.S.), I sent an e-mail asking if they might expedite my order so that I would have the Shofar for Easter. They did! I will definitely be ordering more items from this company, but in the future, I will make note that items have to be shipped from Israel, and so take longer. I am not at all disappointed in the item — it is EXACTLY as pictured. I could not be more pleased.

I wanted a small shofar. This one is perfect. It is slightly polished, just about 3 inches wider on both sides of my hand when I hold it in my fist. It was very easy to blow, teeth tight over lips as you would blow a trumpet. I found the same one today in a Christian bookstore for 45.00. Very happy with this.

This is exceeded my expectation in quality and beauty. I have never owned a Shofar and now I feel very privaleged to have one. Since I played a trumpet in my younger days, I was especially excited to a blow it.

I would have rated it 5 of 5 stars if it were not the length of time it took for delivery since it shipped from Israel. That being said, the order was received before the estimated delivery date provided on the order confirmation email (3 weeks).
