The Honeycomb Simanim Tray from the Waterdale Collection prints a painted honeycomb design on premium Lucite, with a designated spot for each of the simanim – apple dipped in honey, pomegranate, dates, head of the fish and the other symbolic Rosh Hashanah foods (סימני ראש השנה).
It includes a removable honey dish in the center for easy, mess-free dipping and convenient cleanup.
Fully wipeable, waterproof, and honey-proof, this simanim platter works as a centerpiece for your Rosh Hashanah table decor. Pair it with the Honeycomb Simanim Tabletop or the Honeycomb Simanim Card for cohesive pieces of Judaica and a stunning Jewish New Year gift.
On Rosh Hashanah, we dip both challah and an apple in honey to symbolize our wish for a sweet new year. Therefore, a honeycomb is a direct visual reference to the honey of the holiday. Designers reach for it because it carries the apples-and-honey theme onto trays, tabletop pieces, and cards without repeating the apple shape everywhere.
Set the apple charger down first as the base layer, then stack the dinner plate on top so the shaped edge stays visible around the rim. Echo the shape once more with apple napkin wraps, and pair with a geometric tablecloth so the motif reads as deliberate rather than scattered.
It works when the two patterns operate at different scales. A fine geometric tablecloth reads almost as texture from a seated height, which lets the larger honeycomb and apple shapes sit on top of it without competing. Two patterns at the same scale is what creates visual noise.
Use a dish with a resting notch or a fitted lid so the spoon never touches the tablecloth, and set it on a small tray or charger to catch anything that runs. Wipe the rim between courses rather than after the meal, since honey is far easier to clean before it sets.
Honey is not produced from the body of the bee the way milk or eggs come from an animal; the bee gathers and stores nectar rather than generating the honey itself. On that basis honey has always been treated as kosher, which is why it sits at the center of the Rosh Hashanah table.
Although some have the custom to dip challah only in honey, there are many who dip the challah in both salt and honey. The Suspended Salt Shaker adds a classy touch to your tablescape without pulling focus from the sweet-as-honey wishes for the new year.
