About the Item

A Stylish Silver Hanukkah Lamp, made in Israel Circa 1950. This menorah brings to mind the types of artistic designs made in Israel during that period. Schools like Bezalel were very prevalent among others in making filigree designs applied to different ceremonial holiday pieces like kiddush cups and Hannukah lamps, Shabbat candlesticks, sconces, and even spice containers. This Hanukkah lamp is not made by Bezalel but is seemingly influenced by their distinct craftsmanship. Hanukkah lamp rests on two wide pedestal legs supporting the long hexagonal rounded body adorned with filigree scrolling designs in circular and undulating patterns. Eight circular candleholders are applied to the top center of the main body in a neat row and a removable servant lamp is affixed to one side. Marked underneath the main body.

A Silver Hanukkah Lamp , Germany Circa 1930
Located in New York, NY
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. Literature taken from Tzadik Kaplans Book: Jewish Antiques...
