Intro

Dress your table with a runner that carries the warmth of a patchwork quilt in raw silk. Panels of gold, cream, and taupe silk are pieced together and topped with embroidered pomegranate branches, their fruit dotted across the fabric in deep pink and red. The pomegranate is a longstanding symbol of blessing and abundance, fitting for any table where the family gathers. The design comes from Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has furnished Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Pieced from raw silk in a patchwork of neutral and gold tones, the runner is finished with embroidered pomegranate branches across several panels. It measures 39.5 inches long and 15.5 inches wide, sized to run the center of a standard dining or Shabbat table. The mix of textures and stitched detail gives it a handcrafted feel suited to holiday and everyday settings alike.

Gift Ideas

The runner makes a fitting gift for a housewarming, a wedding, or an engagement, especially for anyone furnishing a Jewish home. Its pomegranate motif also suits a Rosh Hashanah gift, when the fruit carries its traditional meaning of blessing for the year ahead. It works equally well for a bar or bat mitzvah or an anniversary, and adds warmth to a table beyond any single occasion.

Care Instructions

Spot clean the runner with a damp cloth and avoid soaking the silk. Keep it away from direct sunlight and harsh detergents, and store it flat or loosely rolled to protect the embroidery and appliqued panels.
