A beautiful and thoughtfully crafted Honey Pot and Spoon Set, designed to bring sweetness and beauty to the Rosh Hashanah table and beyond.
Dinah Ninio is a Melbourne-based painter and ceramicist whose minimalist, multifunctional ceramic pieces are inspired by the Jewish lifecycle. Through a contemporary approach to form and function, her work seeks to preserve, honour and beautify Jewish traditions, creating objects that feel both meaningful and relevant to modern life.
Handmade with care, this ceramic Honey Pot and Spoon Set elevates a beloved ritual into a treasured everyday object. Created to hold and serve honey during the celebration of Rosh Hashanah, it reflects the tradition of sharing wishes for a sweet new year while bringing warmth and elegance to the table. With its understated design and tactile beauty, each piece is both practical and sculptural, designed to be used, enjoyed and cherished year after year.
At the Jewish Museum of Australia, we are proud to bring to light the work of Jewish artists and makers whose practices reflect the richness and diversity of contemporary Jewish life in Melbourne. Dinah's work embodies this vision, drawing on enduring traditions while expressing the creativity and evolving identity of the Jewish community today.
