Large Seder Plate With "Paisley" Background

This design is a modification of my standard Seder plate design. The background has been styled with an engraved paisley pattern. The pattern is subtle, so as not to clash with the wood grain. It is also optional.

This example about 15 1/2" diameter and is made of Ash hardwood. I applied a cherry gen stain to accentuate the edges, especially of the paisley engraving. For the large side, the cups are standard, 3" glass kitchenware. They are brand new and kosher.

This particular piece is sold. Yours may be of any hardwood I can source. The price may vary based on the species of wood used and the size.

I have made variations of this with a family name in the middle, with the letters under the item cups rotated (as these are) or not rotated. I will finish any lettering in the middle with 23K gold leaf for a modest charge.

Please contact me with your wishes, and I'll see what I can do. There is never any charge for discussion and design. Any custom design will be sent to you for approval before I ask you to commit.

Your Vision, Carved into Reality
I don’t just make objects; I craft one-of-a-kind legacies. Whether it’s a sacred spiritual vessel or a symbol of lifelong achievement, I specialize in transforming select hardwoods into deeply personal treasures tailored to your story.

Master Artistry Meets Modern Precision
My work blends time-honored wood carving with cutting-edge technology to ensure your piece is nothing short of perfect:

Custom Spiritual & Ceremonial Art: From intricate Challah boards and Seder plates to Episcopal virges and engagement ring boxes, I embrace all traditions with reverence and detail.

The Resin-Inlay Process: For a striking, modern look, I can engrave artwork into the wood and fill it with vibrant, polished thermoset resins. The result is a stunning contrast that highlights both the natural grain and the literal depth of the color.

3D Prototyping: For complex designs like cane finials, I utilize 3D printing to create precise prototypes. This ensures the ergonomics and aesthetics are flawless before the first cut is made into the wood.

Academic & Secret Society Traditions: I am proud to produce ceremonial canes for prestigious college senior societies. I understand the importance of tradition and maintain the utmost discretion for these exclusive commissions.

Let’s Create Something Extraordinary
Every piece I create begins with a conversation. If you have an idea—no matter how unique—I am ready to help you realize it.
