Jewish ceremonial artFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaSilver Shabbat candlesticksSilver handwashing cupJewish ceremonial art, also known asJudaica(/dʒuːˈdeɪɪkə/), refers to an array of objects used byJewsfor ritual purposes. Because enhancing amitzvahby performing it with an especially beautiful object is considered a praiseworthy way of honoring God\'s commandments, Judaism has a long tradition of commissioning ritual objects from craftsmen and artists.[1]

Judaism has a set of classical early rabbinic commentaries on theHebrew Bible; these commentary collections are known as themidrashliterature (Heb: midrashim). Midrash Mechilta has this teaching on a biblical verse:
\"This is my God and I will glorify Him\" (Exodus 15:2)Is it possible for a human being to add glory to his Creator? What this really means is: I shall glorify God in the way that I perform commandments. I shall prepare a beautiful lulav, beautiful sukkah, beautiful fringes (tzitzit), and beautifultefilin.\"Other Midrash teachings (e.g. Song of Songs Rabbah 1.15) offer the same idea. This idea is expanded upon in the BabylonianTalmud(e.g. Tractate Bava Kama 9b). This teaching was understood by succeeding generations as a duty, when possible, to make beautiful items used in Jewish life and worship, both physical and textual.
Items used on Shabbat[edit]The following items are used during Shabbat:
- Kiddush cup: Kiddush, literally, \"sanctification,\" is a blessing recited overwineorgrape juiceto sanctify theShabbatandJewish holidays. Kiddush cups are highly decorated, and are generally made of china, porcelain, silver, pewter and nickel.
- Shabbat candlestick holders
- Hand washing cup (\"netilat yediam\")
- Challah cutting board
- Havdalah candle and candle holder
- Havdalah spice box
The close of the JewishShabbatis marked by the brief prayer ceremony ofHavdalah, which usually takes place in the home. Part of the ceremony requires sniffing a sweet-smelling spice or plant. In Jewish communities around the Mediterranean, a sprig of a sweet-smelling shrub was customarily used, in Northern Europe by the twelfth century there are literary references of the use of a specially designed spice box or container. The oldest surviving spice boxes for Havdalah date to the mid-sixteenth century. TheJewish Museum (New York)has a German example c. 1550 thought to originate inFrankfurt am Main.[2]
Hanukkah items[edit]SilverHanukkah MenorahThemenorah(or hanukkiah) used on the Jewish holiday ofHanukkahis perhaps the most widely produced article of Jewish ceremonial art.[3][4][5]TheLindo lampis a particularly fine example by an 18th-century silversmith. Contemporary artists often design menorahs, such as the gold-plated brass menorah with 35 moveable branches designed byYaacov Agam.[6]A silver menorah byZe\'ev Rabanfrom the 1930s is in the Judaica Collection of theNorth Carolina Museum of Art.[7]
