Kiddush Cup

Every Jewish home needs one, and a good one becomes an heirloom.

Kiddush is the blessing said over wine to sanctify Shabbat and holidays, and the Kiddush cup is the goblet it is poured into. Lifting it is how the Sabbath begins at countless tables every Friday night, which makes a beautiful cup one of the most-used ritual objects in a Jewish home.

A quality cup in silver, pewter, or hand-blown glass elevates the ritual and, over time, becomes an heirloom, the cup the family associates with Shabbat itself, passed from one generation to the next. Few gifts are so ordinary in use and so treasured in fact.

For a wedding or a new home, it is a cornerstone gift: every Jewish household needs one, and a thoughtful one becomes part of the fabric of their week for decades. Choose something you would be proud to see lifted at their table.

Who it's for

A wedding couple, a new home, or a bar mitzvah beginning to lead Kiddush. A foundational Jewish-home gift.

Where to find it

Judaica shops, Jewish museum stores, and silversmiths and glassblowers selling through studios or Etsy. Vintage silver cups are wonderful finds too.
