Design ToscanoQL18429 Ark of the Covenant Religious Statue, 29 cm, Polyresin, Gold

I didn't know what to expect but it is very impressive!

This is a lovely ornament. I have purchased Toscano items before and I am always thrilled with my purchase. They are one of the best. The Ark is very detailed and even the angels faces are clear and detailed. I love how a representation of the Ten Commandments, Rod of Aaron and bowl of manna are fixed to the bottom of the ark. The ark in person is not as bright as the photographs as I had the flash on my camera it is more of a dull gold than a gold leaf gold. It is not too small but also not too big where you do not know where to place it. Love it. I received it packaged well but care needs to be taken when taking it out of the box because the representation of the wooden poles at each side of the ark are quite fragile so can be easily broken if care is not taken.

My husband loved it as a Xmas present

This is a wonderful piece, good substantial size and very detailed with the exception of the interior of the Ark. The pot of mana, the budded rod and the tablets are built into the piece without distinct coloring of their own, but still, I love this piece. Very nice.

Great thanks

Fantastic product! Better than I expected

I have been after a model of the Ark of the Covenant for display purposes. This looks good, however the quality doesn't quite match the overall impression. One of the poles was broken on the first one I received. It was replaced promptly, but one of the poles was bent on the replacement - not very badly, but enough to irritate. It is not enough for me to want to return it, nut not as good as it could have been.

This is the best version available in a comprehensive online store such as Amazon.Toscano produces good quality work. After received and displayed it does not look cheap but looks and feels significantly crafted. And has a respectable weight for its size.It is a very satisfactory reproduction.Some reviewers mentioned it’s not shiny enough. An “eye of the beholder” consideration as far as i’m concerned. Repaint it should you be so capable because you’re losing sleep how dull it seems. {shrug}The Keruvim are appropriately portrayed, with the wings positioned as dictated including the minimal space separating one set from the other (excellent!), the position of the youthful bodies as a boy and a girl (though some talmudic sources suggest the body of birds - which might disturb a public unversed in Torah’s 70 interpretations - even though the sages agree a boy face & a girl face), and there is detail on the direction the faces are positioned (excellent #2!).This reproduction has the faces looking downward a bit, which is appropriate since their direction was based on the people’s attentiveness to their god.It takes no evaluation to know the god people listen to is not the Supreme God but the bad-ego god conveniently arranged per person.Most unfortunately the producers repeat the same grievous error as all other reproductions by placing the poles in the wrong direction: which is fore & aft direction so the Kohen Gadol could find his way out from an incense cloudy small space.When one takes one’s design marching orders from Hollywood & Spielberg instead of the sacred scripture which gives very detailed specifications for an item one can expect production inaccuracies. [Refer to Rabbi Dovid Meyer’s exquisitely detailed, the encyclopedic “The Mishkan Illustrated,” available here at Amazon, of course.]If you’re going to purchase an Ark of the Covenant this Toscano version is the only one to get.
