The spice tower serves a unique purpose in Jewish tradition, as it is used during the Havdalah ceremony, which marks the end of the Sabbath and the beginning of the new week. Its elegant design, with swirling floral motifs, reflects the craftsmanship and attention to detail that are often associated with Judaica art. Vintage Silver Spice Towers And Judaica Collectibles.
