Intro

Dress your Shabbat table with a gold challah cover, its base scattered with pomegranates embroidered in silk thread beneath the words Shabbat and holiday blessings in gold Hebrew lettering. The pomegranate has long stood for blessing and abundance, a fitting motif for the bread it covers. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has shaped Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Woven from a cotton and polyester blend, the cover is embroidered in silk thread rather than by hand, giving the pomegranates and swirling vines a fine, consistent finish. It measures 19.5" x 15.5", sized to drape over a standard challah loaf or two. A matching plata cover is available for those who want the set complete.

Gift Ideas

The gold tone and detailed embroidery make this cover a strong choice for a wedding, engagement, or housewarming gift, especially for a couple setting up their Shabbat table. It also suits a bar or bat mitzvah or an anniversary, or anyone building a Jewish home. Its warmth carries well as a gift beyond those occasions too.

Care Instructions

Hand wash the cover gently in cool water to protect the silk embroidery, and lay it flat to dry. Avoid wringing or harsh detergents, which can dull the thread's sheen over time.
