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. For more information on dreidels (how to play, what the different sides mean), check out the Judaism.com page, or click here to play virtually.

MN3 Metal Menorah

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor

Modern and minimalist, the MN3 Metal Menorah from Bruce R. MacDonald is a step away from some of the more ornate or complex designs that are popular choices for menorahs. This piece consists of nine metal candle holders arranged on a slight curve and held in place with a thin metal rod. It is made of aluminum and polished stainless steel, both materials that will reflect the light from lit candles beautifully. It measures 4"H x 21"L. Price: $160.
