Innovative Contemporary Art Set
Bring the sanctity of Shabbat into your home with this exclusive art duo, creating a stunning visual bridge between the sacred and the everyday.
Designed as a matching set, “Kiddush” and “Havdalah” follow the Shabbat from its entrance to its peaceful exit. While they perfectly complement each other, each piece stands alone as a powerful statement of Jewish identity and style.
The Inspiration
- The Kiddush (Bottle & Goblet): Symbolizes the entrance into the day of rest. The full wine cup and elegant bottle represent abundance, joy, and the moment we set the seventh day apart from the week.
- The Havdalah (Candle & Cup): Marks the graceful transition back to the workweek. The braided candle’s warm glow and the ceremonial cup capture the distinction between light and darkness, bringing hope for a blessed week ahead.
Technique & Artistry
Artist Menucha Yankelevitch uses a rich mixed-media technique to give these pieces a sophisticated, high-end feel:
- Monochromatic Palette: Shades of grey, white, and black create a clean, modern backdrop that lets the spiritual elements shine.
- Rich Texture: A tactile, layered background adds depth and a raw, natural feel to the canvas.
- Gold Leaf Accents: Real gold leaf highlights the flames and goblets, adding a “royal” touch that symbolizes the inner light of the Shabbat.
