APELOIG COLLECTION: A CONTEMPORARY TAKE ON TRADITIONAL JUDAICA

Launch of new categories and expanded core collection at NY NOW


New York, NY – August 19-22, 2017 Apeloig Collection creates Judaica products that pay tribute to a sleek a modern design aesthetic while honoring Jewish rituals.  Sisters Daniela and Gabriela Apeloig launched the brand in 2014 with a highly successful line of refined mezuzah cases that reflect the modern, minimalistic style that they love.  Apeloig Collection is launching new and expanded categories at the NY NOW show at booth #3155 with the launch of sophisticated laser-cut challah covers, extra-large sized mezuzah cases, and new mezuzah cases in vibrant colors.

 

“Families are searching for ways to translate their love of contemporary design with their appreciation of time-honored traditions.  We believe that traditional shouldn’t translate to typical, and creating elegant design can preserve the true essence of each ritual object. Our products are designed for the contemporary family who chooses to celebrate and also give meaningful gifts with style,” says Daniela Apeloig, co-founder of Apeloig Collection.

NEW CATEGORIES CELEBRATE MODERN + TRADITIONAL

Challah Covers: A Contemporary Take on Grandma's cherished judaica

Apeloig Collection translated the intricate, elegant patterns on grandma’s dollies into an equally beautiful yet contemporary laser-cut version. The cover is made of two distinct fabrics, giving the challah cover the illusion of light and air.  Delicate tulle is layered below an acetate fabric that has been laser-cut with a precise pattern of modern Stars of David.

The challah cover is available in eight colors: gold, silver, bronze, taupe, cream, black/white, blue, and eggplant. The colors were chosen to match the colors of the existing challah boards.   Each challah cover comes packaged in a plastic pouch with a button closure, specifically made for storing the challah cover and preventing the cover from wrinkling, dust and other potentially damaging elements.  In addition to being a beautiful storage option, the pouch makes the challah cover a great gift.

 

By Popular Demand: New Mezuzah Sizes and Colors

At the show, Apeloig Collection will be introducing two new mezuzah case colors in silver and garden green. The sisters were inspired by the latest tropical plant print trend featured in many home designs and created a garden green version of their popular mezuzah collection.   The new silver mezuzah case offers an elegant metallic look that imitates a real silver mezuzah case with a modern look.  

To meet the demands of clients, Apeloig Collection is introducing a new extra-large mezuzah case (dimensions: W 1’’ H 7.48’’ D 1’’) that fits popular 15cm scrolls.

 

CORE COLLECTION POPULAR FOR GIFTS + HOME DESIGN

Mezuzah Collection: Sophisticated Simplicity

Elegant in its simplicity, Apeloig Collection modern mezuzah reminds us that the most beautiful part of the mezuzah is the text within. Available in 16 vibrant colors and four sizes, each handcrafted mezuzah is made out of acrylic that ensures the mezuzah scroll housed inside is always visible.  Each Apeloig Collection mezuzah comes in beautiful custom packaging that’s perfect for gift giving.

 

“Each piece in the collection was carefully designed and developed with a team that has expertise in acrylic. This is a difficult material to work in, but it is the ultimate in contemporary, clean, and sophisticated design. Looking at the collection and seeing its success, we know the time and effort was worth it.  Clients that buy for themselves come back and buy gifts for others, knowing that the receiver will have the same joy,” says Gabriela Apeloig, co-founder of Apeloig Collection.

 

Challah Boards:  Modern Versatility

Made of beautiful translucent acrylic, this modern challah board is as dazzling as it is versatile. Meticulously designed features include a magnetically attached knife that will never harm the acrylic surface, it fits in its own nook and it is flush with the board, a built-in dish for salt or honey and ergonomic borders that make the board easy to grip. Each challah board comes in a custom-designed box with a magnetic closure for long-term storage. A beautiful reflection of Apeloig Collection’s philosophy of tradition meets design, these boxes make challah boards wonderful gifts.

 

The Challah Board was launched through a successful Kickstarter campaign- 100% of the funding goal was reached in just 9 hours. By the end of the campaign the funding goal exceeded by 245%.  


The solid Challah Board is available in ten vibrant colors: honey, eggplant, silver, gray, black, gold, smoke, blue, white, and neon.  The striped Challah Board is available in eight distinct colors: honey, eggplant, gray, black, smoke, blue, white, and neon.
