Early 20th Century Polish Silver Plated Shabbat Candelsticks

About the Item

Rare pair of silver-plated brass Shabbat candlesticks, crafted in Warsaw, Poland, in 1908. These matching Shabbat candlesticks, impressed with flowers, lions and Stars of David, are the result of assembly-line production that was abundant in Warsaw during the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries. To meet the demand of the Jewish population in Warsaw during this period, factories such as Fraget, Henneberg, and Norblin began manufacturing all kind of Jewish ceremonial objects that were affordable to the masses. Each candlestick showcases a gracefully curvaceous form, adorned with intricate floral and foliate motifs, characteristic of the ornate European Judaica style of the period. The central sections prominently feature embossed Star of David symbols, reinforcing their sacred role in Jewish Shabbat observance. The silver-plated finish adds a refined and distinguished appearance, highlighting the delicate details of the design. Resting on square bases, these candlesticks offer both stability and aesthetic harmony, further enriched by elaborate decorative patterns. A beautiful blend of religious significance and artistic mastery, these candlesticks serve as both functional ritual objects and treasured pieces of Jewish heritage, reflecting the skilled workmanship of Polish artisans from the early 20th century. While thousands of these Judaic- themed candlesticks were made during that time, finding a pair for sale today is not easy.
