Intro

Bring heritage to your Shabbat table with a Kiddush cup painted in the colors of Jerusalem's old walls and rooftops. The wood cup is hand painted with a vivid cityscape of towers, domes, and stone facades, a scene that carries the weight of connection to the land of Israel. It rests on a matching plate finished in a radiating sunburst pattern that echoes the cup's palette. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has furnished Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Used for Kiddush on Shabbat and holidays, the cup is turned from wood, hand painted by skilled artisans, and sealed in a glossy lacquer finish that protects the artwork. It stands 5.5 inches tall with a 2.5 inch cup diameter and holds about 60ml. The set includes a matching 5 inch wooden plate, also hand painted and lacquered, to catch the cup and complete the setting.

Gift Ideas

The Jerusalem design and rich color make this cup a fitting gift for a wedding, engagement, or bar or bat mitzvah. It also suits a housewarming for someone furnishing a Jewish home, or an anniversary gift with lasting meaning. The matching plate adds a finished, gift-ready presentation on its own.

Care Instructions

Wipe the cup and plate clean with a soft, dry cloth rather than soaking them in water. Keep both away from harsh detergents and prolonged moisture so the lacquer finish and painted colors stay bright.
