This is an embroidery made by Israeli artist Shosh Segev especially for the Star of David exhibition in Yavne Gallery which opened yestarday.
The reflection in the glass of the frame shows me taking the photo and the Star-of-David-Chuppa created by artist Yaniv Shapira.
This blog (by Zeev Barkan) is dedicated to the Star of David, its history, its various meanings and usages in different cultures. It includes thousands of pictures of Star of David, six-pointed stars, hexagrams, Solomon's Seals, Magen Davids and yellow badges,and served as a resource for three books and four art exhibitions.

Star Glasses
I asked Jennie Gottschalk, whose computer designs I favor, to illustrate Star of David sunglasses and she accepted my request. At first glance I saw a male wearing Star Glasses, a second latter I realized it is a woman.
I like the result and even more I like the creative cooperation between me and Jennie Gottschalk, which seems quite a precedence here on Flickr (correct me if I'm wrong).
