This handmade ceramic bowl, formed and fired in the ancient soil of Israel, offers more than simple utility – it is a vessel of elegance, spirit, and biblical resonance. Shaped from earth, water, and flame, it embodies the timeless rhythm of creation echoed in the Land of the Bible.

The calming contrast of sage green glaze over warm, earthen clay evokes the landscapes of Israel’s highlands, grounding you in the natural palette of the land. Whether filled with fruit, holding Sabbath candles, or serving as a daily reminder of your connection to Israel, this bowl is meant to be touched, used, and treasured.

Crafted in the Judean Hills – where prophets once walked and olive trees still whisper ancient prayers – this bowl carries the spirit of Jeremiah’s words: “Just like clay in the hands of the potter…” (Jeremiah 18:6). With every curve and glaze, it speaks of transformation, purpose, and the sacred artistry of forming something new from dust.

Naomi Goldman, the artist behind this work, lovingly crafts each bowl in her quiet studio nestled in the Judean Hills settlement of Gevaot. Every piece is unique, made by hand, and infused with the love and peace of the land from which it comes. By welcoming this bowl into your home, you are bringing a part of Israel into your life – and supporting the hands that shaped it.
