A Silver Hanukkah Lamp , Germany Circa 1930
About the Item
A Unique Silver Arts and Crafts Hanukkah Lamp, made in Germany Circa 1930.
This Hanukkah Lamp is truly unique and has a few different styles of craftmanship and designs that make up its structure. Seemingly this menorah looks to be made for children.
The shaft and the base are remarkably executed. the light hammering on the base referenced the Arts and Crafts movement while the shaft is designed in an Art Deco fashion. However, the cut-out pattern of the palm leaves and the engraved Stars of David are of a lower standard; the engraving in particular is sloppy and crude.
Yet the cups and the finial and the small bells at the end of the leaves are well done- the balls cite the influence of the Secession, yet another art trend.
Whatever may be for the apparent contradiction in the quality of workmanship, this is an interesting Rarity.
Hallmarked and signed at the bottom of the hammered base.
