Description
In the Torah, the tree symbolizes the Jewish people. The roots are our ancestors, the trunk corresponds to the people of Israel who were redeemed from Egypt, the branches represent the tribes of Israel, and the fruit of the tree are the good deeds performed by each Jewish soul. Hebrew Text: Ani L'Dodi V'Dodi Li in gold. Handmade by Tamara Baskin. Israeli born artist Tamara Baskin creates elegant and function designs in fused glass that celebrate Jewish life. She moved to the United States where she began her career in art. A self taught artist with some twenty years experience working in several mediums, Tamara's Judaica works are fused glass, with an emphasis on creating elegant yet functional designs to celebrate Jewish life. No two pieces are exactly alike. She painstakingly places the pieces of cut glass and iridescent metals to be fused into one beautiful piece of glass. Each piece is signed and dated.

About Tamara Baskin
Born and raised in Israel, Tamara Baskin moved to the United States where she began her career in art. She had twenty years experience working in several mediums, but was drawn to the art of fused glass production. Her emphasis was in creating elegant but functional pieces designed to celebrate Jewish life cycles. Her tzedakah boxes, menorahs, seder plates, and mezuzahs appear in the homes throughout the world. Never content with sitting back, she forged ahead by experimenting with new shapes, colors, patterns, and materials. Tamara became a true leader in the glass industry by both Judaica and non-Judaica guilds throughout the world. In her later years, she moved beyond the confines of functional Judaica. This new vision led to the production of larger pieces of ornamental art. On August 11, 2007, Tamara Baskin passed away. Her designs continue to be produced by her family and staff.
