About the Item
A sterling silver and glass honey dish set by Sami Zilka from Israel, in the late 20th century, represents a blend of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design.
The honey dish combines sterling silver, known for its durability and aesthetic appeal, with glass, a material that allows for visual transparency and often symbolizes purity and clarity in Jewish ritual objects. In Jewish tradition, honey dishes are used during Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, to hold honey symbolizing the hope for a sweet and prosperous year ahead. As such, Zilka's honey dish not only serves a functional purpose but also embodies cultural and spiritual meanings associated with the holiday.
The honey dish is made of glass and rests in a circular leaf-designed placement. A beautiful hand-crafted rose with large petals adorns the lower placement of the honey dish. At the top, a circular cover is fitted to the dish and is embellished with a smaller rose and surrounding petals. A branch-designed spoon for the honey fits into one side of the cover.
This honey dish by renowned artists like Sami Zilka is sought after by collectors and those interested in Judaica art. It embodies the spirit of Jewish holidays and rituals while showcasing the craftsmanship and creativity of a celebrated Israeli silversmith.
Marked and signed under the cover nad at the bottom of one of the rose petals
