• Designed by Yair Emanuel

Intro

Bring the colors of Jerusalem to your table with a pair of hand painted salt and pepper shakers. Each piece is carved from wood and painted by hand with the city's towers, domes, and rooftops in warm, layered color. Jerusalem imagery carries a sense of heritage and connection, fitting for any table it graces. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has filled Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Carved from wood and finished by hand, each shaker in the pair stands about 4 inches tall. The Jerusalem scene wraps around all sides, painted individually so no two pieces are quite the same. The shakers hold salt and pepper for everyday use or for the Shabbat and holiday table alike.

Gift Ideas

A pair this colorful makes a fitting housewarming or wedding gift, especially for someone furnishing a new Jewish home. They suit a bar or bat mitzvah or an anniversary just as well, and work as a thoughtful gift for any occasion where a bit of Jerusalem belongs on the table.

Care Instructions

Wipe the shakers clean with a soft, dry cloth rather than washing them, since water can dull the painted wood. Keep them away from direct heat and moisture to preserve the color over time.
