Illustrated Shir HaShirim Scroll. Especially Large Lettering. Artistic Script on Parchment

Shir HaShirim scroll written by an artistic scribe. Illustrated with gilt decoration and a beautiful illustration for each column.

Said Rabbi Akiva: "All Writings are sacred, and Shir HaShirim, the most sacred" (Tractate Yadim 3, 5)
Elegant and stunning parchment scroll, written by an expert G-d-fearing artistic scribe in Ashkenazic script - 'Ktav Beit Yosef, ' in large and impressive letters with sparkling and shiny ink, on light-colored high-quality parchment. Kosher and suitable for reading in public for the mitzvah with a blessing.
In Ashkenazic communities, Shir HaShirim is read in the synagogue with a blessing on Shabbat during Passover, according to the general custom in Ashkenazic tradition to read a megillah that corresponds to the atmosphere of the holiday on each of the three pilgrimage festivals. In other communities, Shir HaShirim is read on the seventh day of Passover, or at the end of Seder night or during the ma'ariv prayers of Shabbats during Sefirat HaOmer. Likewise, in some Jewish communities (primarily in Chassidic and Sephardic communities), it is customary to read this megillah each Friday, before Kabbalat Shabbat, due to the perspective of Kabbalistic sages that the day of Shabbat in general, and Shabbat night in particular, is a time of closeness and unification between the Jewish people and Hashem.
Segulahs of Shir HaShirim (sources: HaZohar HaKodesh, our Sages, Me'am Loez, Kaf HaChaim, Ahavat Chaim):
* Huge segulah to read Shir HaShirim with intent and wholeheartedly for 40 consecutive days, and to request each day, after this recital, one (similar) request, and the request will certainly be fulfilled. Tried-and-true.
* Segulah for a mother whose sons are struggling in their Torah study: She should recite Shir HaShirim daily and request that Hashem light up her sons' eyes with Torah.
* All the cures in the world are hinted at and included in Shir HaShirim and it is beneficial for anyone who needs healing.
* One who reads Shir HaShirim each Shabbat night in pleasantness and song is assured that all his transgressions of the previous week will be forgiven.
* One who recites Shir HaShirim with intent and precision in its letters, will be rescued from the judgment of Gehinnom.
* Recognized segulah for finding one's spouse quickly: Reading Shir HaShirim for forty consecutive days out loud and with cantillation.
* Wonderful segulah for marital harmony: Husband and wife should read Shir HaShirim.
* One who reads Shir HaShirim every day merits fear of Heaven.
