The Rivaya Cup
Welcome to the realm of sterling silver mastery, where the divine intertwines with artistry to create a piece that sings to the soul – Josh Burde's 'The Rivaya Cup.' This extraordinary Kiddush cup is not merely a drinking vessel; it is a symbol of tradition and spiritual depth, handcrafted with passion and precision. Inspiration for 'The Rose Cup' is drawn from the divine verse in Song of Songs 2:2, “I am a Rose of Sharon an ever-fresh rose of the valleys.” The result is a beautiful hand-hammered sterling silver cup that embodies the essence of this verse, both in its form and spiritual depth. An intriguing element of 'The Rose Cup' is its capacity to hold 221 ml, reflecting King David's reassuring words in Psalms 23:5, “My cup runneth over.” This volume harmoniously aligns with the gematria (numerical value) of “runneth over” (revaya/רויה), adding a layer of spiritual resonance to this artful piece. The tactile delight of 'The Rose Cup' lies in its meticulously hand-hammered form, designed to fit snuggly in your palm. The careful crafting process creates a luminescent sterling silver surface that gleams under any light, making it a pleasure to behold and to hold. 'The Rose Cup' by Josh Burde represents more than just a Kiddush cup; it's a statement of faith, a symbol of heritage, and a work of art. This hand-hammered masterpiece is destined to become an heirloom, illuminating Shabbat tables for generations to come.
