It's no secret that Regency Heritage in Somerset NJ, boasts a magnificent 'Columbus Room' (pictured to the left), which houses a priceless Columbus Sculpture in the center. The Columbus Sculpture Panel commemorates the voyages of Columbus and the Jewish contribution that made the Voyages of Discovery possible. It is also adorned with a small version of the Jerusalem Sphere in its center. The artist, Frank Meisler said this about the Jerusalem Sphere:
"I have created Jerusalem in the form of a sphere, the city walls and gates and the buildings culminating with the Temple Mount. The concept derives from ancient maps showing Jerusalem as a circular city in the center of a flat world".
The Columbus Sculpture Panel was hand crafted in 2005 out of silver, 24kt gold and pewter. Only about 10 were ever created.
