1 Old Vintage Dreidel
I bought this dreidel, off a old man,
who said it is from Russian Empire,
and its from Year 1904-1905.
The letters on it, are more or less ''not readable'',
as it got rubbed out during the years.
See photos.
You will get 1 dreidel.
I was told that its made out of Lead.
But I dont know these things. So I cant tell you for sure.
Traditional Jewish Dreidel, as you see on the photos.

Size of the Dreidel:

The dreidel or sevyvon is a four-sided top, and is a game traditionally played during the holiday of Hanukkah / Chanukah.
The connection to the game of dreidel goes back to the time of the Temple when the Jews were prohibited from studying Torah. They needed a way to hide their Torah learning and dreidel was often used as a decoy. When they saw others coming, the Jews would hide their Torah books and take out their dreidels, thus tricking them that they were just playing a simple harmless game.
It is said that the entire world is like a spinning dreidel with everything constantly revolving and changing from one thing into the next - the first becomes last and the last becomes first - from top to bottom and from bottom to top. bronze
