The World's First Diamond Dreidel

Filed under: Art

Not all dreidels are made out of clay. Over the years, they have come in many forms, but now, Mervis Diamond Importers is claiming to have created the world's very first diamond dreidel.

The Platinum Micro-Pave Diamond Dreidel (right) is priced at $1,800.00, and is available in very limited quantities. It features .96 carats of diamonds hand-set in platinum. For those of you in-the-know, the diamonds are graded G/H in color and VS2/SI1 in clarity.

It must be ordered by December 9 to ensure a delivery by Hannukah. This is not only an exceptional gift for those of the Jewish variety, but for diamond collectors and anyone fascinated by religion.

Nambe Dreidel

by Deidre Woollard (RSS feed) —

This has to be one of the most attractive dreidels I've ever seen. It was designed by Marilyn Davidson for Nambe as part of the Judaica Collection. The collection includes a menorah, seder plate, mezzuzah, candlesticks, kiddush cup and a challah knife which all share a simple and spare aesthetic in silver and wood.The dreidel sells for $65.
