A Ketubah is a marriage contract used in Jewish wedding ceremonies.The background floral design of this Ketubah is inspired by a Moroccan Ketubah from the nineteenth century. The oriental portal shape represents the entrance of the couple into their new life together. A poetic perimeter design featuring flowering vines encompasses the wedding vows. Done meticulously in richly-colored inks, this Ketubah has an original, dramatic flair created by the contrast of black, orange, purple and green shades against the white purity of the Ketubah text.
