Some people like to set a table with their fine china, gleaming silver and delicate crystal.
And some of us are clumsy. (Or have young kids.)
But just because my great-grandmother’s china is seldom used at my house these days, doesn’t mean that I don’t enjoy bringing out special pieces to our Shabbat table.
I just want those pieces to lean more toward the harder-to-destroy-in-one-fell-swoop side.
If you, too, are looking for pretty, special and durable tableware and serving pieces, let me introduce you to SWIRL.
Linda, the owner and craftswoman behind Swirlgifts, recently contacted me about hosting a giveaway for KOAB readers. I took one look at her website and jumped at the opportunity.
I love her funky style — multi-colored stones or beads, wrapped in a swirled pattern — and her reasonable prices (comprable items on Etsy sell for twice as much).
As if I wasn’t already in love, Linda offered to send me the giveaway prize that she would be sharing with my readers – in order to get my personal review on the pieces.
The package arrive quickly and was wrapped up in a pretty gold bow.
Inside was a gorgeous large basket, an amazing (seriously – amazing!) stainless steel bread knife, and a sweet little set of glass salt and pepper shakers.
The 15-inch basket immediately became our table’s breadbasket on Shabbat, lined with a simple white napkin.
But Linda also suggested a plethora of other uses for the basket, priced at $46:
- contain mail
- hold hand towels by the sink for netilat yedaim
- display utensils for a buffet dinner
- bring a 9×13 pyrex to the table – it fits snugly inside
- makes a great hostess or engagement gift
As for the little salt and pepper shakers ($18), this gift couldn’t have been better timed. We recently broke my favorite set of salt & pepper shakers (from a pottery collective in Jerusalem *see above about “durability”) and I was really missing them.
Which of course made SWIRL’s sweet little set all the more perfect. While these are just the right size for our minimal use of salt and pepper at the table, I’ve also had friends purchase several sets, so that every person – or couple – can have their own set. Lovely!
And finally the knife: I called it amazing, remember? Let me tell you why — by way of comparison.
I’ve given up on finding the perfect bread knife to use for Shabbat. Our challah knife, which we got as wedding gift, is pretty, but it’s a horrible knife. And our good bread knife works like a charm — but it’s far from delicate-looking.
The Swirl challah knife ($36), however, is both pretty and functional, for the win!
The 15-inch stainless steel knife is sturdy, cuts smoothly and feels solid in my hand. And the embellished stones are so sparkly!
I truly love all of the Swirl items I received – and am definitely happy to recommend her store to all of my readers.
Even more so because Linda has offered a to give KOAB readers FREE shipping and 20% off your Swirlgifts order when you use the coupon code KOAB20 at checkout. Place your orders for Passover early – before she starts to sell out!
I’m also beyond thrilled that Linda has offered to give away a $100 Swirl prize package to one lucky Kosher on a Budget reader.
The winner will receive:
- large embellished bread basket
- 15-inch embellished bread knife
- small embellished salt & pepper shakers

My favorite piece(s) of tableware are actually not used frequently. My late grandmother was a china painter and hand-painted me a full set of very nice china. I love it but I’m scared to use it because it’s precious to me and I have young, clumsy kids–and I’m a clumsy mom. 😉 But it’s beautiful and makes me happy to think of the love she put into making it.

I have matching etched glass bowls that I use for Shabbos. My sister-in-law’s mother bought me one and my then fiance was holding it until we were married. The only problem with that was that he left it with his landlord when we got married and we didn’t get it back for a year and a half. Before we got it back I was shopping at Marshalls with my sister in law one day and saw a bowl that I thought looked really similar. I bought it at the time thinking that if I ever had my sister in law over for Shabbos when her mom was in town I wanted to make sure that I had something if she happened to ask about it. When we eventually got the original gift back I found out that I had in fact bought an identical bowl.

I have a large Salad Bowl, not V-Shaped, that I adore because it holds so much salad
My favorite tablewear piece is this three part small bowl series that I have. They are decorated beautifully, and they are the perfect size for what we callt he “salatim” course. The first course of everyone of our Shabbat meals is usually chumus, roasted garlic and some other dip or salad (usually an Israeli salad, corn salad, etc). These bowls are big enough that everyone can take a little bit of the “salatim” but small enough that people don’t take too much and fill up on the course. I just love them!
I really love the bread knife! It’s simple and elegant, but still has a little “pizzazz” to make it interesting and whimsical. Really I love all of your items, but the knife has a special place in my heart!

My favorite serving piece is one I don’t get to use very often – it’s a cool round metal tray, decoratively bent at one edge. Problem is that it gets really hot, so it can only be used for cold things. Plus it’s a plate, not a bowl, so that limits how I can use it.

My favorite serving piece is a plain (but elegant) glass bowl which is great for trifle but I mostly use it for leafy vegetable salads.
my favorite piece~ a rather shallow but large glass bowl with wavy rim that I received from my Aunt Annie OBM, as a housewarming gift about 30+ yrs ago.

My favorite serving piece is an Arthur Court Butterfly design casserole dish holder that holds a square Pyrex dish in it.

Oops, I was supposed to tell you about my favorite tableware or serving piece. Hard to choose. I think I’d say a ovenproof bread tray that keeps the bread warm. Thanks!
I have subscribed to your Passover newsletter. Thank you for providing this terrific service!
I went to FB and liked the Swirl page. Neat stuff! Glad to know about them.
we have a unique salt and pepper set from Hungary. it comes with little shovels to scoop out the spices. Everyone likes it.

I love my gold etched bowls I received as a wedding gift.
These items aregorgeous!!!
I purchased the six shot glass set with the tray for my husband who collects shot glasses. He ALWAYS uses these first! In fact, for both my son’s l’chaim and my daughter’s l’chaim, these were the only “real” glasses used since they are so beautiful!
I “Liked” Swirl on Facebook quite a while ago and am very excited to read Kosher on a Budget’s Passover Newsletter!
The antique porcelain biscuit jar that I purchased at a very low period in my life, the handpainted colors of the flowers always cheered me up when I was not feeling good about myself. Because I felt so low I kept it hidden in my china cabinet. Now, fast forward 4 years later, I keep that biscuit jar front and center in my cabinet. It reminds me that I weathered the blackness and realized I AM a beautiful woman worthy of all that is good in this world. When I take the biscuit jar out of the cabinet I remind myself how blessed I am that I never give up on myself’, what an amazing husband I have to believe in me, even when the storm was the darkest but most of all, I am loved by God, no matter what happens.
I have 2 swirl serving baskets. I love them both. I bought 1 and received 1 as a gift. I was thrilled to have a matching set. I always recieve compliments when I use them on the Shabbbat or Yom Tov table. I likes swirl on facebook and signed up for the Passover newsletter through Kosher on a budget!
My favorite serving piece is my stainless steel salad bowl. It’s very classy looking, not HUGE, and doesn’t weigh a ton!

My favorite serving pieces are really my silver flatware set that my mom passed down to me several years ago. I believe they were originally my great-grandmothers.

When we got married, my fathers boss gave us a Spode plate worth $150 from a fancy store. We had no idea what Spode even was nor had any interest in using a plate that cost so much. We returned it and got store credit to the fancy store. We then came back to the store for their once a year clearance store and got 7 pieces of servingware for that $150 that we use almost every shabbos. My favorite serving piece comes from that group of items. It’s a set of a big and small glass bowls that can be used separately, or together. Together, it makes a very pretty honey dish.
