Israeliana - Metalware Israeli made general metalware items Please contact us for more info, pictures and prices The displayed items were made by various makers, currently not well known as Pal-Bell or Oppenheim, but they are already collectible and we predict that they will become more known in future. Some of those makers were employees at Pal-Bell and after a few years of \'learning the business\' they opened their own workshop. Oppenheim was already known prior to the1950s and made items marked: \"Hand Made in Palestine\". Later they bought Pal-Bell from Moshe Klein and continued some product lines using Pal-Bell\'s moulds and their new logo. During the transition period, we may see items marked with both logos and some have no marking at all, but the items were made by using the original Pal-Bell moulds. There are many original items made by Pal-Bell, not marked or not listed in the catalogues. Some were not marked because of technical reasons, no place to put the marks, like \"Zohar\" candlesticks 681 or even not all pitchers \"Beer Sheva\" # 61 have Pal-Bell\'s logo or name, just \"Made in Israel\" in English and in Hebrew. Because certain items were made in a modular interchangeable manner, we may see certain \'marriages\', which might be very successful, all of them however, are highly collectible. One should judge an item not according to its maker only, but according to the quality, rarity and its uniqueness. There are gorgeous items made by a relatively unknown maker, and at the same time we can see different quality items even by Pal-Bell. The early Pal-Bells are more valuable and they were made of solid and heavier material and with darker green \'verdigris\' plating than the later ones. It was a very \'rich\' period with designers such as Raban and others, new immigrants from Europe and Russia that contributed significantly to innovative and unique Israeli products. There are several makers that for some reason they did not add their logo or name to their products They are marked below as \'unknown\', however, they are marked \'Made in Israel\' and sometime with Pat. # The reasons for that might be: new products, experiments, special orders, selling to export or specific market, etc.*****Israel – sovereign state located along the Eastern edge of the Mediterranean Sea in Southwest Asia, an area known historically in the Western World as the Near East or Middle East.[1] It borders Lebanon in the north, Syria in the northeast, Jordan in the east, and Egypt on the southwest, and contains geographically diverse features within its relatively small area.[2] The West Bank, which is partially administrated by the Palestinian National Authority, and the Hamas-reigned Gaza Strip are also adjacent. With a population of about 8.1 million,[3] the majority of whom are Jews, Israel is the world\'s only Jewish state.[4] It is also home to Arab Muslims, Christians, Druze, and Samaritans, as well as other religious and ethnic minority groups. The modern state of Israel has its roots in the Land of Israel, a concept central to Judaism for over three thousand years. After World War I, the League of Nations approved the British Mandate of Palestine with the intent of creating a \"national home for the Jewish people.\"[5] In 1947, the United Nations approved the partition of the Mandate of Palestine into two states, one Jewish and one Arab.[6] The Arab League rejected the plan, but on May 14, 1948, Israel declared its independence. The new country\'s victory in the subsequent Arab-Israeli War expanded the borders of the Jewish state beyond those in the UN Partition Plan. Since then, Israel has been in conflict with many of the neighboring Arab countries, resulting in several major wars and decades of violence until this day.[7] Since its foundation, Israel\'s boundaries and even the State\'s very right to exist have been subject to dispute, although Israel has signed peace treaties with Egypt and Jordan, and efforts are being made to reach a permanent accord with the Palestinians. Israel is a representative democracy with a parliamentary system and universal suffrage.[8][9] The Prime Minister serves as head of government and the Knesset serves as Israel\'s legislative body. In terms of nominal gross domestic product, the nation\'s economy is estimated as being the 44th-largest in the world;[10] Israel ranks the highiest among Middle Eastern countries on the basis of human development,[11] freedom of the press,[12] and economy.[13][14] Jerusalem is the country\'s capital, seat of government, and largest city, and Israel\'s main financial center encompasses Tel Aviv.

In recent years, there has been a huge increase in the demand among collectors for mid-century metal crafts and Judaica produced in Israel from around the time of Israel\'s independence (1948). The most sought after items were produced by Pal-Bell Co. Ltd. of Tel Aviv from 1939 to 1956. Here is a brief background on the company, its items, and its founder for the benefit of collectors and enthusiasts. In 1939 in Tel Aviv, Maurice Ascalon (formerly known as Moshe Klein) founded Pal-Bell Co. Ltd., with the mission of creating tasteful decorative and functional metalwork and Judaica of the highest quality.From its founding in 1939, until 1956, Pal-Bell - a.k.a. Palbell - created scores of distinct brass and bronze items. Its wares ranged from decorative bowls, vases, pitchers, trivets and ashtrays, secular in motif, often Art Deco in style; to traditional styled, Judaic-theme commemorative plates, candle sticks, menorahs, bookends, figurines and more.Maurice Ascalon, who received formal artistic training in Brussels and Milan, was also Pal-Bell\'s chief designer. Through Pall-Bell, Ascalon introduced the use of green patina to Israel\'s modern metal craft industry. The application of reactive chemicals to the raw bronze and...
