Intro

Add a piece of Jerusalem to your Hanukkah display with this small wood dreidel, hand painted with a blue cityscape of arches, towers, and rooftops. The fourth face carries the letter shin, for nes gadol haya sham, the phrase used outside Israel. Jerusalem imagery carries a sense of heritage and connection, fitting for a piece meant to be displayed rather than played with. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has shaped Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Hand painted on wood, the dreidel measures 3.5 inches tall by 1.5 inches wide and comes with a matching painted stand for display. The fourth face is marked with shin, completing the nes gadol haya sham set used outside Israel. Framed as a decorative collectible, the piece sits upright on its stand rather than being spun.

Gift Ideas

Compact and colorful, the dreidel suits a Hanukkah gift for a child or collector alike, and works well for a housewarming or as a small addition to a Judaica shelf. It also makes a fitting gift for someone building a Jewish home, or a bar or bat mitzvah gift with a seasonal touch. Its size makes it easy to include alongside other Hanukkah gifts.

Care Instructions

Wipe the dreidel and stand gently with a soft, dry cloth to keep the paint bright. Keep the piece away from moisture and direct sunlight to preserve its colors over time.
