ברוך אתה ה׳ אלוקינו מלך העולם, אשר קדשנו במצוותיו וצונו על הטבילה

Blessed are You, our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with the commandments and commanded us concerning immersion.

The Mikvah

At the center is the immersion. A mosaic of moving water rises behind it.

The Mikvah

A glass rail, a single descent, and a backlit onyx panel carrying the words of the bracha. The mikvah is set in green stone the color of still water.

The room

An alternate hand done in warm marble. Same proportion, same chandelier, a quieter palette for the same act of renewal.
