About

A memory carved in stone, revealed from within the wall

After the Temple was destroyed, the sages decreed that no plastered home should be built — but for a cubit by a cubit by the entrance, left unfinished.

Shulchan AruchOrach Chayim · 560 · §1
A 48 × 48 cm patch of wall, left raw and unfinished — a living reminder of the Temple's destruction, and the hope of its return.

We give that memory an artistic, moving expression: by hand, we expose the raw concrete behind the plaster in a cubit-by-cubit space, and carve into it traditional imagery, inscriptions, and ornaments drawn from Jewish tradition, Jerusalem, and the Temple.

The carving is a daily reminder — as long as the Temple is not rebuilt, we are not whole.

Why us

One wall, one story, one pair of hands

  • Handmade, never templated

    Every cubit is carved by hand straight into the existing wall. No two pieces are alike, because no two walls are.

  • Built around your home and story

    Size, image, inscription and placement are all decided with you, in one conversation before a tool is lifted.

  • With you from idea to wall

    One artist walks with you from the first call to the last chisel stroke, anywhere in Israel.
