This vintage Israeli sterling silver Kiddush cup goblet (becher) features traditional Jewish ritual motifs. Hand-finished with detailed repoussé grape clusters and leaf vine appliqués surrounding the exterior bowl, this piece celebrates the blessing over wine (Borei Peri HaGafen). The rim and flared foot base are trimmed with fine woven basketweave band borders. The interior of the bowl retains a rich, vibrant gold wash (vermeil) lining, traditionally applied to preserve the purity of the silver against acidic ritual wine. Raised on a pedestal stem with a turned central knop, this piece carries substantial weight in hand and displays excellent craftsmanship.

Condition: In excellent vintage condition with light, honest signs of handling consistent with ritual observance and age.

Authenticity Assessment

The piece exhibits clear hallmarks stamped along the outer lip of the flared foot ring, including a bold 925 numerical purity stamp paired with an official Hebrew character standard mark. Visual examination under magnification confirms applied repoussé grape reliefs, hand-chased borders, and genuine lathe-turned tooling marks along the under-base interior. The presence of a genuine gold-wash lining inside the bowl aligns with traditional Israeli Judaica silversmithing techniques designed for acidic kosher wine protection.
