The Israel Museum in Jerusalem, home of the Dead Sea Scrolls, lends its name to gold jewelry, mezuzahs, menorahs and seder plates made mostly in Israel.

Based: Jerusalem, Israel
Since: 1965
Craft: Museum Judaica and jewelry

The Israel Museum in Jerusalem is Israel's largest cultural institution, and ModernTribe carries Israel Museum jewelry and Judaica. Founded in 1965, the museum holds about 500,000 objects, including the Dead Sea Scrolls in its Shrine of the Book, one of the world's most comprehensive collections of Holy Land archaeology, and a wing devoted to the material culture of Jewish communities worldwide.

Most of the pieces are made in Israel. They range from 14k gold and sterling silver necklaces with the Star of David, chai and hamsa to mezuzahs, menorahs, dreidels and seder plates, including a replica of a Viennese seder plate from around 1900.
