Wow! Incredible workmanship - but what a horrible color! Very few people could wear this yellowed green color effectively! It will look great on those with a sallow or an olive complexion, but anyone with pink skin would look like death-warmed-over wearing this color!

"If you earned 5000 dollars an hour, 24 hours a day, from when the pyramids in Egypt were constructed until today, the world's richest man would still have more money than you."
Could Not - COULD NOT - get my jar of Mrs. Adler's 'Jerusalem Style' (sweet) Gefilte Fish to open! I am a senior and have arthritic hands and fingers and the damn top WOULD NOT come off! I ran it under hot water, poured boiling water over the top - I even put the jar top upside down in an inch of water and got it boiling - NOTHING! Oddly, the metal top has indentations to help you grip it, but the smooth jar does not! {Needs a re-design, Manischewitz!}
I finally had to resort to drilling a hole into the metal top to break the seal! Even that did not work right away, but I was able to get the top off and pour the contents into an easy-open plastic container and toss the jar & wounded top away! I hope I do not have metal shrapnel in my gefilte fish!
There has got to be a better way!
A blessed Passover to all my Jewish followers! May Your Jars of Gefilte Fish Ever Open! L'Chaim!
Yes, rhinestones and all, this is a real Shriner's Fez. Inside is embroidered the name of the man who wore it once upon a time.
No - I am not a Mason or a Shriner. But I do have a collection of headwear. The tassel {which is 17 inches long!} weighs more than the rest of the fez! 'Ballut Abyad' is 'White Oak' in Arabic, and this particular Shrine is in New Mexico. I purchased it off eBay.
