Mahr

Posters about mahr — the groom's gift to the bride, agreed in the marriage contract. Mahr belongs to her, not to her family. That is the most common misunderstanding, and the difference between mahr and a bride price is worth knowing.

The amount is agreed between the parties, and it can be given at the wedding or deferred. The series comments on the expectations around mahr, not on the custom itself. Gold sets, weighing scales and a car with a bow in front of an ordinary block of flats.
