The magical quality of Nava's work is present here with a tablet-shaped text under a canopy of vivid color.

This gaily colored ketubah visually expresses new love with song birds, violins, harp, sweet-smelling roses and verses of love. This composition represents the creation of the world.

Many symbols of love, prosperity, fertility and good luck are incorporated with scenes from Israel and the seven species.
