Very old Torah scroll fragment from Morocco
Material: deer parchment.
Age: ±1800.
Dimensions: ±50 cm x 14.5 cm.
A portion of an ancient handwritten Torah scroll in the original Hebrew language on deer parchment. This handwritten document is made of deerskin and is prized for the beauty of the soft deer parchment and the beautiful writing. The parchment holds the ink well and the letters remain black and easy to read. The roll has a beautiful yellow-brown deep color. This exceptional color is due to the process used to make the scroll, which ages to a deeper color over the centuries. Torah scrolls such as these are extremely rare and rarely available due to their age. Considering its age, the Torah scroll is well preserved and in good condition and will remain beautiful for centuries with care.
