Description
Torah scroll, Ashkenazi scribal writing. [Western Hungary / Eastern Austria, ca. first half of 19th century].
About half of the scroll [from Parshat Ki Tisa until Parshat Korach, and other membranes] have been replaced at a later time, apparently from the time the mantle was dedicated [Western Hungary or Eastern Austria, ca. beginning of 20th century].
Ink on parchment, 42 lines per column. Clothed in a blue velvet mantle, with an embroidered dedication (silver thread embroidered on a cardboard lining) inside a floral bouquet pattern capped with a Torah crown: "This was donated by... Yuda Dreksler with his wife Hendel, and their dear son Gavriel. 1929".
Parchment height: approximately 55 cm. Maximum height including atzei chaim: 96 cm. Good-fair condition. Slightly faded ink. Holes with halachically valid patches. Wooden atzei chaim. Velvet mantle, worn (primarily the front), with unraveling.
Enclosed is a report by an expert on ancient Torah scrolls, who determined the place and date of the writing.
