This cheerful red pomegranate design is hand painted on a lovely blue background. This exquisite set features a Kiddush cup, a spice container and a candle holder – all standing on a round footed tray. Brightly painted with fine details, this Havdalah set will carry the beauty of Shabbat into the coming week. Jewish tradition teaches that the pomegranate is a symbol of righteousness since it is said to have 613 seeds, which correspond to the 613 “mitzvoth,” or commandments, of the Torah. The pomegranate also represents fruitfulness, knowledge, learning, and wisdom.
Each item is sealed with a lacquer finish after painting to ensure that the entire Havdalah set remains waterproof.
