Intro

Dress your Shabbat plata in blue and maroon with a fabric collage cover that goes over the hot plate and the food kept warm on it. Diamond-patterned bands in maroon and cream frame a pale center panel lettered with words from Lecha Dodi. Deep navy panels complete the patchwork layout. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has been part of Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Made of fabric, the plata cover measures 31.5 by 26 inches, sized to drape over a plata. It is pieced as a collage of navy panels and diamond-patterned bands, with the Lecha Dodi text on the center panel. The cover weighs about 0.8 pounds, light enough to lift on and off with ease.

Gift Ideas

A plata cover makes a thoughtful housewarming gift for a couple setting up a Jewish home. It suits a wedding or engagement, where a useful piece for the Shabbat kitchen is always welcome. It also marks an anniversary or a bar or bat mitzvah in a practical, lasting way. The deep blue and maroon palette fits many kitchens, so it gives well to someone whose style you do not know.

Care Instructions

Spot clean the fabric gently with a damp cloth and let it air dry fully. Fold it flat for storage so the collage panels keep their shape.
