The Torah declares that the shofar (ram's horn) should be sounded on Rosh Hashanah as a means of awakening Jews to reflect on past deeds and to promote personal growth in the coming year. It is a mitzvah which recalls the sounding of the shofar at Mt. Sinai when the Torah was given, and the Jewish people became a nation. This exceptionally well-crafted, polished shofar is beautiful and produces a clear sound. It also makes a meaningful gift for both Bar Mitzvah and Bat Mitzvah.
