Count the Omer with Itzhak Luvaton's New Showcase Design

"שִׁבְעָה שָׁבֻעֹת, תִּסְפָּר-לָךְ...."  דברים, פרק ט"ז, פסוקים ט'-י'
"You shall count for yourselves seven weeks" Deuteronomy 16:9-10


Bringing together the ancient and the modern, Itzak Luvaton together with Meira Freifeld, , have created an extraordinary showcase to display and Count the Omer, designed to resemble a large, impressive book, each page is headed by the number of the day (1-49). Each page is Giclée printed and hand-gilded with 23 Karat gold leaf.
The pages which look like ancient text are visible through an open window on the face of this modern, majestic blue volume, which stands upright on its own. Using innovative techniques, Luvaton's exclusive design enables you to secure each day's beautiful page in the book's window during the seven week period and safely store each of the 49 pages within this showcase.
Time is marked or counted between holidays as in the period between Passover which celebrates freedom from slavery to Shavuot which celebrates the giving of the 10 commandments to ensure real freedom for all. During this seven week period we traditionally count each day called "Counting the Omer".  (3,00 years ago Jews brought a small amount, an omer, of barley to the Temple in Jerusalem to note each day). Today we recite a blessing and count out the number of the day and the week each day.

Itzhak is now making new Kiddush Cups. The cups are hammered with a classic design, and engraved in special "windows" with various subjects, such as Jerusalem, the three 'Regalim', Holy sites in Israel: Kever Rachel, Kotel Maaravi, Initials and others. The subjects can also be ordered by the customeres.

The Kiddush cup in the image has engraved  a view of Jerusalem and the saying:
