About the Item
A mid-20th-century inlaid Etrog box handcrafted and made in Jerusalem. The box features intricate inlay work with wood and bone, showcasing a hand-carved central fruit motif - an Etrog attached to its branch flanked by leaves symbolizing beauty and growth.
The container rests on a square curved base and a thick hinged wooden lid with a brass clasp, adding a touch of elegance to its practical design. On the lid printed in Hebrew are the words: "A souvenir from Jerusalem" at the top and below the words: " And you shall take for yourselves a tree fruit that is beautiful". Green velvet lining adorns the sides of the inner container to accommodate the fragility of an Etrog.
Smooth and detailed craftsmanship highlights the techniques and cultural heritage of the region, making it not only a functional item for storing the Etrog but also a meaningful souvenir from Jerusalem. Its timeless design and historical value make it a cherished collectible.

Modern Tzedakah Box by Gruss
Located in New York, NY
This tzedakah (charity) box, crafted by Brooklyn-based artists Lorelei and Alex Gruss in the year 2000, is an exquisite example of Judaic artistry. The design features a silhouette of a cityscape, likely evoking Jerusalem, rendered in gold-toned metal with intricate cutouts. The background is inlaid with iridescent mother-of-pearl, lending the piece a luminous, ethereal quality.
Beneath the cityscape, the Hebrew word “צדקה” (tzedakah) is prominently displayed, symbolizing the Jewish practice of charitable giving. Two decorative blue gemstones, set into two stars of David, enhance the front, adding a touch of color and sophistication. The box’s wooden structure complements the gold-toned metal and mother-of-pearl inlay, creating a harmonious blend of materials.
