Each artifact in this historical collection was used in a useful and different way. This gallery contains many artifacts that one would find in a home. All these artifacts are at least two generations old and are precious to the owners because of the memories they hold. Included in this gallery are many different objects, like musical instruments, mortars and pestles used to crush spices, a shaver used to get ready for Shabbat or special occasions, and a tea set used everyday. These artifacts come from many different parts of the world and give us clues about how our ancestors lived.
