Curator’s Note: This exceptional piece is a masterclass in mixed-media Judaica. The iridescent glass bowl offers a contemporary, celestial aesthetic that provides a dramatic contrast to the traditional sterling silver filigree and embossing. The inscription of the Borei P'ri Hagafen blessing anchors the piece in historical liturgy, making it an ideal acquisition for collectors seeking to elevate their ritual space with a functional, museum-quality objet d'art. Its vibrant play of light makes it a sophisticated addition to any modern interior or tablescape.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This stunning artisan Kiddush cup beautifully blends traditional ritual design with modern iridescent art glass. The bowl features a vibrant, swirling iridescent finish that catches the light with deep blues, purples, and amber tones. It is encased in a high-quality sterling silver mount, clearly hallmarked ".925" and signed "Sherman." The front of the silver mount is embossed with the traditional Hebrew blessing "Borei P'ri Hagafen." This piece is a perfect centerpiece for Shabbat or holiday tables, serving as both a functional ritual object and a striking work of art.
