The Tree of Life Stained Glass Window


This window was commissioned for one of London’s main orthodox synagogues in St. John’s Wood, The Tree of Life window was design by Ardyn Halter and made by Ardyn Halter with Roman Halter.

It was commissioned to mark 50 years of the State of Israel, Holocaust and Rebirth and the subject of Torah Study. The Rabbi and Council of the synagogue agreed with Ardyn Halter’s proposal that the Tree of life could symbolically represent all three.

The quotation at the top of the window: Etz Hayim…refers to the Torah: “It is a tree of life to its followers. Those who adhere to it find happiness.”
The window was commissioned by Philip & Caroline Green in memory of Annabelle Paradise.

Size: 2.7 x 2.5 metres; 9’ x 8’ 6”.
