Memories Plate

Passover is the most celebrated Jewish holiday all across the world. It has become a traditional custom to bring gifts to your hosts on Passover dinner, the Seder. Passover gifts are often both decorative and practical. Popular Passover gifts, such as Passover Seder plates are also given as gifts on special occasions such as Jewish weddings. Contemporary Judaic artists have made a great contribution to the wide selection of originally designed Passover gifts. Here are the most popular kinds of Passover gifts.

Passover Seder Plate

During Passover dinner we eat six traditional foods that commemorate the enslavement of the Israelites in Egypt. The six ceremonial foods play an integral part of retelling the story of Exodus. The dishes are placed on a Seder plate that includes six designated for the foods: Marror, Chazeret, Charoset, Karpas, Zroa, a roasted egg.

Passover Seder plate is undoubtedly the most popular of all Passover gifts, and is also a very popular Judaica artwork. The Seder Plate stands at the heart of the Passover table. Since it is the most impressive item on the table it is often beautifully decorated with prominent Jewish motifs and inscribed with Hebrew words.

Matzah Plate

Matzah plates make a wonderful option for unique Passover gifts with symbolic significance. Matzos are eaten during the Passover dinner and in the eight days of the holiday. Matzah -is a special kind of flat bread. The matzos are usually placed in a special tray known as Matzah plate. In similar to Judaica designs of Seder Plate, Matzah plates often include traditional Jewish motifs as the seven species. It is also very common to find Seder Plates and Matzah plates in matching designs.

Matzah cover

Matzah covers also make great gifts for Passover. Matzah covers add extra festivity to the Passover table. During the Seder, Matzah is broken into two pieces at the early stages of the Seder. One piece, called the Afikoman, is hidden as part of a game played with the children with the intention to keep them awake and alert during this long evening. The children need to find the Afikoman.
