Challah covers are special cloths used to cover braided challah bread, which is blessed before the Jewish Shabbat meal.

In this collaboration with Broiderie Stitch, we were inspired by the seven sacred species listed in the Bible as being grown and consumed during Biblical times: Wheat, barley, grapes, figs, pomegranates, olives, and dates. Jewish mystics have attributed spiritual energies to the medicinal properties of each of the seven species.

Each challah cover is made entirely by hand by a team of artisans in New England. Broiderie Stitch is proudly 100% carbon neutral, and is dedicated to preserving the craft and heritage of hand embroidery for generations to come. 

MATERIALS: Irish linen cloth and lining, 100% cotton embroidery thread.

SIZE: 19" x 15"

CARE: Machine wash in a delicates bag on cold cycle. Iron from the non-embroidered side.
