About the Item

Multiple kabbalistic themes and hidden protective symbols adorn the backplate of this Hannukah lamp, starting at the bottom with a row of foliate patterned keyhole arches mounted by openwork horseshoe arches with scrolling patterns. At the center, two sheep leaning on two tree trunks gracefully facing apart crowned with a foliate bow stemming from the trunks. A pair of roosters rest atop two columns protruding at the top corners of the backplate and flank the removable servant lamp that is affixed to yet another horseshoe arch surmounted by a foliate fleur de lys with a hanging hook at the back. Circular ring surmounted by a stylized fleur de lys is used to hang the Hanukkah lamp and is easily hooked to the backplate Eight deep-cast circular oil cups are affixed to the lower backplate with pointed tapering spouts.
