Jewish Museum Eleonore Zuckerkandl Wood Tray
Made for the Jewish Museum Shop is this wood tray featuring “Fürchtegott” or “God Fearing” (1918), a design by Wiener Werkstätte artist Eleonore Zuckerkandl. Perfect for serving or display, this tray is made from FSC-certified birch wood and coated with durable matte melamine, making it a beautiful and practical addition to any home.
The design on this tray is from a fabric pattern included in the exhibition Modernity and Opulence: Women of the Wiener Werkstätte, on view at the Jewish Museum July 17–November 15, 2026. The exhibition sheds new light on the role that Jewish women played as artists, designers, patrons, and tastemakers for the Wiener Werkstätte, shaping modernist aesthetics in early twentieth-century Vienna and beyond.
