Shah - Tzedakah Box
Handmade in Tel Aviv, Israel
Dimensions: 19 × 16 × 15 cm
Shah is a contemporary handcrafted Tzedakah box made of durable stoneware, blending tradition, language, and local material culture. Its name is derived from the Hebrew acronym for the Israeli New Shekel – ש״ח – subtly embedded into the form itself. The windows echo the letter Shin (ש), while the arch refers to the letter Chet (ח), transforming Hebrew typography into sculptural design.
Inspired by the historic architecture of Rachel’s Tomb near Jerusalem, Shah reinterprets sacred forms through a modern lens, connecting past and present. This piece reflects a unique visual language where Jewish ritual, Hebrew letters, and local aesthetics come together.
Both a Judaica object and a design statement, Shah can also serve as a minimalist ceramic piggy bank — a functional and meaningful addition to any home.
