Grooved Cylinder Black Aluminum Mezuzah

The Grooved Cylinder Black Aluminum Mezuzah is a rounded mezuzah case made in Israel with a deep black body, polished silver rings, and a silver Shin (ש, Hebrew letter). The contrast makes every groove visible and gives the narrow cylinder a bold architectural rhythm.

The design offers a graphic interpretation of mezuzot for dark hardware, black entry doors, pale stone, white trim, and contemporary interiors.

Black and Silver Contrast on the Grooved Cylinder Mezuzah

The polished rings stand sharply against the black recesses and remain visible around the full circumference. This makes the grooves more graphic than on lighter siblings and gives the case a strong presence without increasing its width.

The dark palette belongs naturally among black mezuzahs. The regular metal geometry also reflects the restrained construction of modern mezuzahs.

Its round aluminum body is lightweight despite the visual depth of the rings. Other metal profiles are available among aluminum mezuzahs.

Silver Shin and the Sacred Scroll Inside

The silver Shin appears in a smooth interruption within the rings. Shin begins Shaddai (שַׁדַּי, Divine Name), traditionally associated with mezuzah.

The exterior symbol does not replace the handwritten klaf (קְלָף, parchment). This case fits up to a 5-inch kosher mezuzah scroll, selected according to the chamber fit rather than the full exterior height. Options are available among kosher mezuzah scrolls.

The article on the mezuzah scroll explains the Shema and the parshiyot (פָּרָשִׁיּוֹת, Torah passages) written inside.

A family's minhag (מִנְהָג, custom) may lead them toward Ashkenazi mezuzah scrolls, Sephardic mezuzah scrolls, or Chabad mezuzah scrolls.

As Product 12 in the sequence, this description includes the approved Mezuzah Klaf destination.

Waterproof Black Cylinder Mezuzah Care

The bottom screw-cap closure creates a sealed chamber when tightened correctly. The case therefore belongs among waterproof mezuzahs, but the parchment should still be wrapped properly and inspected after severe exposure.

Medium Aluminum Mezuzah for Modern Doorways

At 5 1/2 inches tall, the case falls within medium mezuzah cases. The included tape should be attached to a stable, dry surface with enough width to support the cylindrical body.

Made in Israel, the design belongs among mezuzahs made in Israel.
