Miriam's Cup

Many families add a Miriam’s Cup to their Passover Seder as a way of honoring the role of women in the Exodus story. This beautifully designed wine glass brings that tradition to life in a way that feels both meaningful and visually striking on your Seder table.

The glass features the words “Miriam’s Cup” alongside a verse from Exodus (15:21):

Miriam the prophetess… took the timbrel in her hand and all the women went out after her.

The Hebrew text כוס מרים and the verse appear alongside the English translation, allowing the design to speak to both tradition and accessibility.

At the center of the artwork are graceful illustrations of women dancing with timbrels, inspired by the moment when Miriam leads the women in celebration after the crossing of the sea. The imagery adds movement and joy to the glass, reflecting the spirit of that moment in the Passover story.

A Meaningful Addition to the Seder Table

During the Seder, many families fill Miriam’s Cup with water and place it on the table as a symbol of Miriam’s Well, the source of water that sustained the Israelites in the desert. For others, it represents the importance of women’s voices in Jewish history and tradition.

However you incorporate it into your Seder, this glass becomes a meaningful focal point on the table and a conversation starter for guests.
