A challah board gives the loaf its own place at the table, set apart before it is cut. Wheat stalks are etched deep along one edge, alongside the engraved words of Hamotzi lechem min ha'aretz, and the grooves that curve across the surface catch stray crumbs as the bread is sliced. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has shaped Jewish tables for over two decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBuild and Use\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut from acacia wood, the board carries no handles, relying instead on the natural weight and grain of the wood. The wheat motif and Hebrew text are engraved directly into the surface, not painted or printed, so the bare wood shows through every line. The half circle shape measures with a flat edge on one side and a rounded arc on the other, wide enough to hold a full loaf. Curved grooves radiate from the center, guiding crumbs away from the bread as it's sliced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eGift Ideas\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wheat motif and engraved blessing make this board a natural gift for a wedding or housewarming, especially for someone setting up their first Shabbat table. It also suits an engagement, a bar or bat mitzvah, or an anniversary. Its clean half circle shape gives it a modern edge that works well as a standalone gift, too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the board clean with a damp cloth and dry it right away, since acacia wood shouldn't sit wet. Rub the surface with food safe mineral oil every so often to keep the wood from drying out and to keep the engraving crisp.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"emanueljudaica","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50598641664225,"sku":"CBD-18","price":99.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/1194\/9025\/files\/78673f38d5805e80937234b8873c78c9.jpg?v=1790603670","url":"https:\/\/yair-emanuel-judaica.com\/products\/half-circle-challah-board-etched-wheat-design","provider":"Emanuel Judaica","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
