Torah Arc
The Torah Ark, a sacred chest for housing the Torah, was designed with portability in mind. As specified in Exodus 25:10-20, the original Ark was crafted from acacia wood. In this modern interpretation, Koa wood is used for the main structure, with Ebony accents. The Ark and its base are separate components to facilitate movement, with lifting handles on the sides for easy transport. The doors, featuring four bookmatched panels radiating from the central handles, are held in place by concealed magnets, cleverly hidden beneath Koa plugs. This design honors both the biblical description and practical requirements of the Ark.
