Container for La Serena water
|
|
Code:IT005
|
|
Price:€12.00

|

This
blue glazed container has a text that reads “and Joseph is a
vine’. This text was widely used to ward off the Evil Eye and
is often found on Jewish kameoth. The Serena Cup is a tradition
amongst many Sephardi Jews in the Balkans. On the night of the New
Moon the cup is filled with water and usually covered with a piece
of muslin (to keep away thirsty insects). This is set so that it
collects the rays of the New Moon. This water is used during the
coming month to ward off evil and illness – bottled, it is
added to other drinks!
Dimensions: approx. 8x5 cm.
