Kiddush Cups & Plates – Unique Israeli Art

A silver Kiddush cup and plate holds a place of honor in many Jewish households. We have commissioned the finest craftsmen in Israel to design and create these small works of art.

Each cup is individually handmade using only the finest silver available. And the designs are unique. Our collection includes with or without a stem, with hammered or polished finishes, with filigree or enamel decorations, and much more. We also offer you Baby Kiddush Cups that your children will love. You can even engrave your child’s name on it to make it a truly personal gift.

Baltinester offers you a wide selection to choose from. All of them are made by our team of top Israeli artists. You are sure to find the one that’s right for you.

The Tradition of Kiddush

A Kiddush cup is used traditionally for reciting the Kiddush – the blessing said over the wine in honor of the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays. Red or white wine or even grape juice is used and the blessing is recited before the evening and morning meal.

The two basic designs we offer are with a stem and base and without them. The Sephardic traditionally do not use with a stem and base, the Ashkenazic traditionally uses a goblet style with a stem and base. Here at Baltinester we have collected amazing selections for our site. We feature beautiful enamel and filigree work, an attractive hammered texture, modern angles, and even the Jerusalem skyline decoration.

All of this selection found at Baltinester Jewelry are made from 925 marked sterling silver. The inside is coated with 24k gold plate to guard against the harsh taste of the silver affecting the sweetness of the wine. You can participate in the Jewish tradition by purchasing one of our fantastic Kiddush cups made in the land of Israel.
