1. Ceramic serving utensils

The ceramist Lior Shahar worked for many years in the production of dishes for the “Sabon Shel Kevma” chain, until she decided to devote herself in 2014 to her own brand, 1220, whose name betrays the temperature at which the dishes are fired in the production process. Her minimalistic and beautiful dishes, which are handmade in the studio in Jaffa, have been liked over the years by women of food and design such as Ruthi Brodo and Sharon Bronsher, and also by us. Prices: A pair of espresso cups costs 70 NIS, Appetizer plates at 60 NIS for one andPersonal bowls at 87 NIS.

9. Colored glass vase

Once upon a time, when the Israeli police were dealing with important issues such as hunting bongs in explosions, the local business owners found a creative solution that allowed them to sell bongs over the table and escape the horror of fines – they simply ingeniously placed them on the shelf and added a small sign with the words “vase” or “aquarium for one fish” . How nice that today, a few years later, the vases have caught up, and today the most desirable models look like a tribute to the Florentine of 2010. Tollmans Dot has a large selection of such vases, in a wide range of prices. The cheapest we found, from the Dutch brand Urban Nature Culture, is made of recycled glass and costs NIS 76.
