Q. A neighbor was moving out & he offered me this object that was hanging in his house rather than throwing it in the garbage. Is it just a wall hanging or could it have come from a Sefer Torah?
(See attachment.)
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlita opinion is that if it is a part of the ornaments of a Sefer Torah or you are in doubt if it is, you have to treat it with the kovod and respect due to all tashmishei kedusha objects and it requires for its disposal geniza.
However, after consulting with some jewelers and judaica dealers, it became apparent that it is just a wall hanging decoration piece.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as advised by Horav Shlomo Miller Shlit’a
