The image shows a sterling silver yad with a decorative chain, originating from Russia in the mid-19th century, displayed in a glass case. Beside it is a placard indicating that it was presented by E.J. and Betty Leizerman in honor of their daughter’s Bat Mitzvah, Jessica Lee Leizerman, on August 27, 1994. The yad's intricate design reflects its historical significance as a ritual object, used to point at text during Torah readings.
