This time the meal begins with an entrée of Art Nouveau and Art Deco art and historical pieces. The next course is rare Chanukiahs and both Jewish and Islamic Persian items. The main course is a generous portion of silver and Judaica. We move on to Israeli military tags and pins. Then we'll have a toast with some alcohol and wash it down with some fantastic Israeli street signs, Israeliana and numismatics. For a sweet dessert, we have gold jewelry, collector pens and fine art. And for anyone who still has room, an after meal treat of Israeli vintage games and collectables.
