Plate for Passover

During Pesach only unleavened bread and food can be eaten. According to a long tradition of centuries even before Pesach the house has to be cleaned from unleavened food (chometz) and from everything that could have been in contact with leaven. During the holiday, a separate set of tableware is used. In our collection a memory from such a set is a plate made of earthenware with an inscription of ‘Pesach’.
