Two pure silver teaspoons of the eldest of the Tzaddikim of his generation the holy Rav Rabbi Yisroel of Husiatyn, the last of the grandsons of Ateres Tiferes Yisroel of Ruzhin, whose prayers and sanctity protected his generation and Eretz Yisroel.
With an engraving of the letter 'F' on the handle of the teaspoon, marking the family name 'Friedman', generation after generation up to Melech Yisroel of Ruzhin.
The teaspoons are made of silver and are decorated with stalks and varied engravings. Were inherited by his granddaughter the Rebbetzin Bauminger. Enclosed is the seller's confirmation.
Artifacts used by the Tzaddik to eat, like the Avodah of the Kohanim who eat and the owner is granted atonement, are important and considered a Segulah in Chassidic courts as well as in early sources by the Rishonim and Acharonim.
