Intro

Bring a touch of Jerusalem to your washing station with this embroidered hand towel. A colorful Jerusalem cityscape, its domes and archways stitched in rich thread, sits above a trio of blue stripes along the border. The imagery carries a sense of heritage and connection, a fitting motif for a towel used at Netilat Yedayim. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has furnished Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Woven from cotton in a waffle weave, the towel is embroidered with the Jerusalem design rather than hand stitched. It measures 24.5 by 18 inches, a size suited to hang by the sink or washing cup. The blue striped border along the base echoes traditional towel trim and holds up well to regular use.

Gift Ideas

This towel pairs naturally with the matching bamboo washing cup, making it a fitting wedding or housewarming gift for a new Jewish home. It also suits a bar or bat mitzvah gift or an anniversary present for anyone who appreciates Jerusalem imagery. Its everyday usefulness makes it just as welcome as a simple gesture of thanks.

Care Instructions

Machine wash the towel in cool water and avoid bleach to keep the embroidery vivid. Tumble dry on low or air dry to preserve the waffle texture over time.
