HANNUKAH MENORAH

The Hanukah Menorah is one of the oldest symbols in Jewish tradition. The menorah is lit during the eight days of Hannukah (sometimes spelled Chanukah), the Jewish Festival of Lights. Laura's modern menorah designs meet the requirements of Halacha (Jewish law) that all the candleholders should be of the same height, except the Shamash, which must be a different height so that it is easily recognizable as the "servant".

PASSOVER SEDER PLATES

The Passover or Pesach Seder Plate is a special plate containing symbolic foods used by Jews during the Passover Seder. Each of the six items arranged on the plate has special significance to the retelling of the story of Jewish liberation from slavery in Egypt, which is the focus of this ritual meal. Laura's elegant seder plate designs are truly stunning pieces of Judaica and make an ideal gift for such an important Jewish holiday. See all Seder Plates...

HANDCRAFTED MEZUZAH

A mezuzah (plural: mezuzot) is a piece of parchment inscribed with the Jewish prayer "Shema Yisrael". The mezuzah is contained in a decorative case and affixed to the doorframe of Jewish homes to fulfill the mitzvah (Biblical commandment) to inscribe the words of the Shema "on the doorposts of your house". Laura's mezuzot are created by hand using traditional silversmithing techniques - sawing, hammering, filing and soldering and make a lovely modern gift for a Jewish wedding or as house-warming present.

SHABBAT CANDLESTICKS

The Shabbat candlesticks are lit just before sunset on a Friday night as Jews welcome the Sabbath day of rest into their homes. The lighting of the candlesticks is a reminder to keep the laws of the Sabbath and Laura's modern Shabbat candlesticks add beauty and atmosphere to this sacred ritual. Also makes a great gift idea for a newly wed Jewish couple. Traveling Shabbat Candlesticks and a Memorial Candle holder also available from this Judaica gifts store. See all Candlesticks...

HANNUKAH DREIDELS

A dreidel (Hebrew: Sevivon) is a four-sided spinning top, played with during the Jewish holiday of Hannukah. It is customary for Jewish children to play with the hannukah dreidel in a kind of gambling game. Each side of the dreidel bears a letter of the Hebrew alphabet which together form an acronym which means "a great miracle happened there". Laura's Smart Dreidel is an educational, yet funky design and makes a great Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah gift, or could simply be a gift to yourself and all the family. See all Dreidels...
