I will Raise a Cup of Salvation: Silver Bottle for Seder Night, Used by the Admo"r of Toldot Aharon


"He is a Tzaddik, He is Sacred, His House will be Built Soon"


Rabbinic wine bottle. Large and magnificent, made of silver. Used by the Admo"r of Toldot Aharon, Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kahn, for over 25 consecutive years. In the first years, during 'Leil HaSeder' - the night of salvations, and later on, during every Shabbat and Yom Tov during his renowned and glorious tisches.


First-rate ritual object - a container for blessings from one of the tzaddikim of recent generations, from which the Rebbe poured the four cups on the first night of the holiday, the night that, according to the Ar"i's writings and according to Chassidic tradition, is the most lofty night of the entire year, as well as being the night with the greatest revelations by Chassidic tzaddikim and luminaries - 'Leil HaSeder, ' as well as other cups of blessing on Shabbats and festivals over the decades.


The bottle was given to the Rebbe as mishloach manot by one of the Chassidim, and around the stopper (also made of silver) is an etched dedication from 1964, "Purim 1964, Chaim Elazar ben Frimet." About 25 years later, in 1990, the renowned Chassid Rabbi Aharon Blum (owner of the famous A. Blum book publishers) brought a new bottle to the Rebbe, and in return, he received this silver bottle from the Rebbe, as indicated in the included confirmation: 'Used by the Admo"r of Toldot Aharon ztzuk"l for over 25 years, in the first years on Passover during the Seder, and throughout the entire holiday, and later on every Shabbat and holiday during his tisch. In 1990, I bought a new bottle for the Rebbe and received this old bottle as a gift. Signed, Aharon Blum.'


Refer to the Hebrew catalog text for a brief biography of the Admo"r Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kahn.


Specifications: Large and impressive bottle, made of silver with grape clusters in relief. Removable stopper, also made of silver, with etched dedication. Signed authorization from Rabbi Aharon Blum - the bottle's owner.

Very fine condition: Slight dents.
