I designed this pattern myself, I hope to have it ready for testing sometime this weekend!
another view of ladies' nightgowns, this is more current to the play
less fullness in the hem as in earlier nightgown
there is also more horizontal detail in the lace at the neckline
i like the idea of more lace around the neckline, kind of adds to the transparency of layers next to her body
also, the openwork of the lace looks less solid and less stable that actual fabric
white of course

Myer Myers
American, 1723-1795
Pair of finials for a Torah scroll
New York
about 1766-76
Silver, brass, gilt silver
Among the rarest works of American silver, characterized by brilliant openwork and exuberant shapes, these finials for a Torah scroll are masterpieces of the new York silversmith Myer Myers. Since before the Revolution, they have been associated with Congregation Jeshuat Israel of Newport, Rhode Island, whose 1763 building, Touro Synagogue, is the oldest synagogue in the United states still in use. George Washington recognized Newport as a beacon of religious tolerance in a letter he sent to the Hebrew Congregation there in 1790. Washington elaborated on the inspiring words penned by Moses Seixas, the synagogue's warden, describing the young nation as having a government "which gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance." These finials stand as witnesses to the ideal of religious freedom in America.
The Torah Scroll and its Finials
The Torah is composed of the first five books of the Bible (the Pentateuch), and Torah scrolls are the holiest objects in the Jewish faith, handwritten on parchment prepared according to the rules of kosher practice. Called rimmonim (Hebrew for pomegranates), finials are traditional ornaments for Torah scroll rollers. These finials called attention to every movement of the scroll within the synagogue, as the shining silver and gilding caught the light and the eye, and the tinkling of bells focused the attention of the congregation. The form has been used for centuries and evokes the Biblical description of the pillars of the Temple of Jerusalem, decorated with pomegranates as symbols of fruitfulness. Myer Myers, who was Jewish, based his designs on European Torah finials, creating among the earliest and rarest examples of Jewish ceremonial art in America. Around 1769, Jewish merchant Aaron Lopez ordered a pair of mahogany staves for a Torah from the Newport cabinetmaker John Goddard, perhaps for these very finials.

Built in 1896/97, the architect was Ewan Harper. His openwork spire is very much a local landmark and icon. Following the discovery of dry rot, the church closed for worship in 2009 when the congregation joined with the Parish Church of St Luke's to form a Local Ecumenical Partnership known as The Bridge Church. (See previous postings)
In 2014 the building was sold and is now subject to a planning application to demolish and replace it with a residential development. It is hoped that a campaign, led by the Victorian Society, will be able to save the tower and/or the spire.
