• Designed by Yair Emanuel

Intro

Add color to your table with a pair of hand painted salt and pepper shakers, each one wrapped in a scene of Jerusalem's domes, courtyards, and archways. The layered rooftops and doorways carry a sense of heritage and connection to the city. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has filled Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Carved from wood and hand painted, each shaker stands about 4 inches tall with a slightly tapered, uneven form that gives the pair its handmade character. The two pieces are sized to sit easily beside each other on any table or countertop. Small openings at the top let salt and pepper pass through with an easy twist of the cap.

Gift Ideas

Bright and detailed, this pair makes a fitting housewarming or wedding gift, especially for anyone drawn to Jerusalem imagery. They also suit a bar or bat mitzvah gift or an anniversary present for a couple furnishing their home. The colorful design gives them a place at the table well beyond any single occasion.

Care Instructions

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