Intro

Bring color to your washing station with a netilat yedayim cup that carries the whole city of Jerusalem around its side. Domes, arches, towers and stairways stack in bright blues, reds and golds, with the words Netilat Yedayim set in an arched panel at the center. Jerusalem imagery speaks of heritage and connection, and the playful, naive style keeps it light. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has graced Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Made of metal with a straight-sided body and two upright handles, the cup stands 4.5 inches tall and measures 5.5 by 3.5 inches across the handles. The interior is a plain polished metal. Yair Emanuel's hand painted design is printed onto the surface, so the colors stay crisp and consistent. The cup suits daily use at the sink or a place beside the Shabbat and holiday table.

Gift Ideas

A cheerful netilat yedayim cup makes a natural housewarming or wedding gift. It also suits an engagement, a bar or bat mitzvah, or an anniversary. For a couple building a Jewish home, it is a practical piece that adds color to the kitchen.

Care Instructions

Hand wash the cup with mild soap and a soft cloth, then dry it well. Keep it away from abrasive pads and cleaners so the printed design stays bright. Avoid the dishwasher.
