Square tile with an Armenian style ornate border, inscribed with a Jewish home blessing in Hebrew. Brought to Israel by Armenian master craftsmen, this has become one of the country's most distinctive styles. Each individual item is hand made, fired, then hand painted using metallic and oxidised paint in order to keep its natural colour. It is then finished with a fine glaze that gives it its attractive appearance before being re-fired to harden the glaze.
