The oldest ornaments of the Torah scroll are the finials placed on top of the two wooden rolls that hold the parchment. In Hebrew they are called rimon, or rimonim in the plural, which means ‘pomegranate’, which is an ancient symbol of fertility, wealth, and figuratively also represents the Torah. The palm tree shaped Torah finials were donated for the inauguration of the Synagogue of Miskolc (1863). Vienna, 1863.
