This ketubah was created when I purchased an orchid stem for an evening with friends. The flowers lasted and lasted. At one point, I decided to take several photographs of the exquisite flowers in different settings. The very next day, I started working on this Orchids Ketubah.
Orchids have been the symbol of love, luxury and beauty for centuries. In Confucius' time, orchids were called "The plant of the king's fragrance." In the middle ages, they were regarded as an aphrodisiac and were included as a main ingredient in love potions. If you've ever had an orchid appear in a dream, they represent a deep inner need to keep delicacy, gentleness and romance in a relationship.
Did you know that the popularity of orchids as we know them today came about by sheer happenstance? Orchids were a curiosity with botanists and wealthy collectors until William Cattley, unpacking plants (not orchids) shipped to him in 1818, noticed a strange plant used for packing material. He potted a few of them and later that year the first cattleya orchid bloomed for him. The flower world was forever changed and the orchid is still one of the most coveted and captivating in the flower kingdom.
Whatever your wedding bouquet
consists of, we can create a custom ketubah around your choice of flowers.
Send us a photograph or a list of flowers and we'll take it from there.
Words of praise:
The ketubah has arrived and it's even more
beautiful than it appears on the web-site. You're correct, it's gorgeous!
I must tell you that I found this Ketubah to be one of the most beautiful from
all that I had viewed. I had been searching online and going to stores for
over a month with basically no results. I felt as though I would have to
settle for something that I didn't love with my heart and soul. Since the
kids want this as a gift from my husband and me, I was looking for a
beautiful piece of artwork that a young couple would be proud to hang in their
home for many years to come. All of yours fit into this category...I love
them all!
I think it must have been my lucky day (when I found your web site) as even my
husband was excited when he viewed your artwork online. He's not easily
moved but he loved so many styles and commented that you're quite an
artist!
I think this (the ketubah) might be the best gift ever given to children.
Thanks a million, Pamela Brosniak
The ketubah is gorgeous! We are so excited to get it framed... Jen & Eric
