Decorative buy Tzedakah Box - Play the Music

This Tzedakah Box measures 5 inches tall and 4 inches across. The box is hexagonal. There are 6 side panels and the top of the box that are embellished.

Each of these in this series is a "One-of-a-Kind". No two will ever be exactly the same.

I hand-sculpted and painted the raised embellishments I used powdered mica pigments, which give a beautiful shimmering metallic and iridescent effect. The side panels were created from select fabrics, joined to a hard backing to give sharp, crisp lines.

Tzedakah Boxes are used to stash coins for donation to a charitable cause. Traditionally, before Shabbat (the Sabbath) begins, pockets are emptied into the family's Tzedakah Box.

I was able to obtain a large quantity of these unique metal buy boxes. I hand-cut the coin slot in the lids with my rotary tools. Then I primed the outer surfaces to prepare them for embellishment. I painted the boxes, added the raised elements, and applied many coats of acrylic, for a protective glossy sheen. The decorations wrap around the 6 corners of the box, so it is beautiful from every angle!

These boxes will grace any home and may become a treasured heirloom to be passed on to your children and grandchildren. Or you may prefer to give this as a wedding gift, a hostess gift, or a housewarming gift. It would also be a meaningful gift to a B'nai Mitzvah on their special day. At any rate, these boxes are exquisite! They represent some of my finest work ever.
