Intro

Add a collectible piece to your Hanukkah display with this hand painted wood dreidel, set on its own matching stand. The four faces are painted with scenes of Jerusalem's Old City, and the fourth carries the letter shin, for nes gadol haya sham, the phrase used outside Israel. Jerusalem imagery here speaks to heritage and connection, a reminder of the city at the center of the holiday. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel.

Build and Use

Carved from wood and hand painted by skilled artisans, the dreidel stands about 3.5 inches tall on its base and 1.5 inches wide. It comes with a painted stand shaped for display, keeping it upright as a decorative piece rather than a plaything. The letter shin appears on the fourth face, marking it as the version used outside Israel.

Gift Ideas

Small and detailed, this dreidel and stand suit a Hanukkah gift for a collector, a housewarming, or a gift for someone furnishing a Jewish home. It also works well for a bar or bat mitzvah gift or as part of a broader Judaica collection. The Jerusalem motif gives it lasting appeal well beyond the holiday itself.

Care Instructions

Wipe the dreidel and stand clean with a soft, dry cloth. Keep both away from water and direct sunlight to preserve the painted color.
