• Designed by Yair Emanuel

Intro

Set the tone for your Seder table with a matzah cover appliqued in a rich Jerusalem cityscape. Domes, towers, and rooftops rise in gold, burgundy, and cream across a deep blue ground, with the word "Pesach" embroidered above in white. Jerusalem imagery carries a sense of heritage and connection, fitting for the night the story of the exodus is retold. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has furnished Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Used at the Seder table, the cover holds the three matzot in separate compartments, one for each layer. The Jerusalem skyline is appliqued in colorful fabric pieces and finished with embroidered detail across the blue backing. The cover measures 15.5 by 15.5 inches, sized to sit over the stacked matzot at the head of the table.

Gift Ideas

A matzah cover suits a Passover gift for family or friends hosting their own Seder, and it works well as a housewarming gift for a couple setting up their first Jewish home. It also makes a thoughtful engagement or wedding gift for someone building their holiday table, or a gift marking a bar or bat mitzvah where Judaica pieces are welcome. The colorful design keeps it a warm choice any time of year.

Care Instructions

Spot clean the cover with a damp cloth rather than machine washing, to protect the appliqued fabric and embroidery. Store it flat or gently folded between uses, away from direct sunlight so the colors stay bright.
