Go For A Spin
The humble dreidel is of course synonymous with family fun time at Chanukah, but the traditional spinning top can also be a work of art.
This hand-painted Jerusalem dreidel, designed by Yair Emanuel, features a colourful vista covering all four sides and can be purchased from online design boutique Absolutelymatanot, making it ideal for game time or simply to admire.
