While it may not be considered a kosher sukkah due to its size, the miniature luxury sukkah created by artist Itamar Nathan contains dozens of details of a real sukkah. Everything placed inside the sukkah is one-tenth of its real-life size.

The table is set with fruits, holy books, a silver goblet, wine bottles, and of course, an etrog in a magnificent silver box. The sukkah structure and the sechach (roof covering) are made of authentic materials, and on the walls of the sukkah, the artist has hung portraits of Torah sages as well as works of Jewish Judaica produced by artists from around the world.

The sukkah was built by hand while authentically preserving every detail. Everything looks real and remarkably inviting. In the center of the sukkah, the artist placed a portrait of his late grandfather, which adds to the feeling that the sukkah and everything in it is completely authentic.
