Why do we eat challah with salt?
Salt is a major symbol for blessing in all cultures. In Judaism, it is a symbol to the covenant between the people of Israel and God as said in the Bible : ”It is an everlasting covenant of salt before the Lord for both you and your offspring” (Numbers, 18:19). It derives from the crucial use of salt for sacrifice in the Holy Temple. The ceremony of dipping the challah bread in salt is reassuring this covenant while thanking God for our bread.

FAQ
Are the products really made of pure salt?
Yes, the products are made of NaCl 100%pure Dead Sea salt.
I add natural pigments ,dried flowers or metal chips for decoration.
How come it is not melted?
Saltware is safe to exposure to heat and up to 75% humidity.
(It is important to keep the product in an environment up to that humidity degree).
This is thanks to its innovative processing.
I use eco- friendly sealer to give it extra protection from dirt.
Is Saltware breakable?
Yes, it is made of a natural mineral and may break like ceramics, glassware etc.
Since the processing is low- energy consuming ,there are no hot tempratures envolved which
makes it even more vulnerable then what it looks like. Handle with care !
How can I clean my product?
Saltware cannot be washed under flowing water or dishwasher.
For cleaning use soft dump cloth. Don’t scratch or use abrasive fabrics.
Only metal parts which can be separated, may be cleaned with warm (even hot) water.
Put the metal part in a bowl and pour hot water on it. Take out with a spoon (as the metal may become hot) and dry thoroughly with soft cloth or paper immediately after.
If the candles you have used have been dripping immensely, you can try putting the metal seats ONLY in freezer for couple of hours.
It helps detaching the wax from the metal. Use tooth stick or you finger tips. Make sure not to use sharp tools, as they would scratch the seats.
Do not put the candles on the salt-made parts-always use the metal seats.
What is the best way to keep my Saltware?
Saltware is safe to exposure of up to 75% humidity.
Beyond that it is better to keep it inside its original box.
Don’t worry – it won’t be melted even if it was exposed to higher humid level.
Just wipe the dew drops that may cling to its surface.
Nevertheless, if that occurs it means the humidity exceed 75% and it is advisable to keep it in a cabinet or in a box.
How to get stains off?
Since is is a pure clear white substance it can stained easily (just like white fabrics as cotton).
Most stains can be wiped off with soft dump cloth. Try to clean immediately after staining occurs.
Is it safe to use candles with the salt? Won’t it burn?
Salt does not burn or ignite. The cylinder shape candle holder will become pleasantly warm and may be touched -try it! You may find it even very pleasant during winter time 😊
Why do you recommend to use 100% beeswax candles?
Beeswax candles do not drip, do not soot, eco- friendly and don’t pollute.
They are better for your breathing and for the environment.
They will also keep the product cleaner and easier for taking care of.
