A Pair of Silver Shabbat Sconces by Bezalel, Israel 20th Century
About the Item
A Glorious Pair of Silver Shabbat Sconces by Bezalel, made in Israel in the early to mid-20th Century.
This pair of Shabbat candle sconces are an example of the Bezalel craftsmanship at its finest.
Sconces feature a pair of magnificent chased resting lions facing away from each other, their mouths agape and jaws bared in a fierce expression.
Behind the lions is a pierced six-branch menorah with its stem seemingly nuzzled between them.
The lions are resting on a flat rounded bar mounted atop broadened wings atop a stiff bar.
An applied bead-encircled holder emerges from the chased wings on which the serrated-edged bobeches rest, containing the cylindrical candle holder for each sconce.
Written on the center bar underneath the lions are the words "Shabbat Kodesh" written in Hebrew.
Signed Bezalel on the hanging ring at the top of the back.
