A challah cover on a Shabbat table

A challah cover is a decorated cloth placed over two loaves of challah, covering them until the kiddush has been recited on the Sabbath and Jewish holidays. In keepig with the Jewish principle of hiddur mitzvah, challah covers became a way of embellishing and beautifying the Sabbath table.
