Besamin tower box
Abstract
One of liturgical utensils of the Jewish faith is a vessel for scents called a spice tower (Hebrew: bassamim, psumin-byksy) used during Sabbath. The scent tower was probably created on the territory of Poland. It was made with the technique of intricate filigree typical of earlier scent towers coming from Polish goldsmith workshops. Unfortunately, it has no punch that would enable its precise identification. This spice tower represents the most common turret type. It has shape of a multi-storey synagogue situated on a square shape base set on four legs in the corners.
