10. Sterling Silver Shabbat Candlesticks – Filigree Design

Shabbat candlesticks traditionally promote peace and harmony in the Jewish home. So, they are a welcome gift and will be prominently displayed with pride. You will find on our website a variety of sizes, materials and designs.  We have chosen to go for these old-style sterling silver raised candlesticks, the kind used by our grandmothers through the ages.  We love the decorative filigree design, radiating the beauty and dignity of Jewish heritage.

9. Gold Lid Scroll Mezuzah case by Laura Cowan

A popular wedding gift to bring blessing to a new home is a Mezuzah case, enclosing the holy handwritten scroll.   Our favorite is this one from Laura Cowan – a talented British designer living in Tel Aviv.  The stunning gold colored top and base contrasts with a transparent glass cover under which is an exquisitely printed Mezuzah text in the scribe’s font. (No substitute of course for a Kosher Mezuzah scroll that must still be inserted inside).
