A Silver Kiddush Cup Adds Elegance to the Kiddush Ritual
A silver kiddush cup is a beautiful way to add meaning and elegance to the ritual of making kiddush. Kiddush is a prayer and benediction over wine on the eve of Shabat or a holiday, recognizing that this day is holy and sanctified.
Traditionally men only recite kiddush, but now women also take part. Before you can recite kiddush, however, you must have a full cup of wine or grape juice in front of you. The cup is passed around the table so that everyone can drink from it. This is done so that you can recite the blessing over the whole cup rather than just a few sips of wine or grape juice.
The cups used for making kiddush are usually engraved with designs such as flowers stars of David, lions or vines. They are often also referred to as “Kiddush goblets” or “Shofar Kiddush cups”. Silver is one of the best materials for making kiddush cups because it has anti-bacterial properties. It is a very durable material and can be made into any design you choose.
Most silver kiddush cups are coated on the inside with 14k gold or Teflon, this helps preserve the taste of the wine and is also healthy for your health. It is also very important to wash your hands before you use a Kiddush cup and after using it you must dry the cup thoroughly to avoid any water spots or stains.גביע קידוש מכסף
