A Sterling Silver Hanukkah Lamp Attributed to Ilana Rappaport
About the Item
This striking sterling silver Hanukkah lamp, attributed to renowned Israeli silversmith Ilana Rappaport, is a masterful example of contemporary Judaica design. Composed of nine individual cylindrical candleholders of varying heights, the piece exhibits a sleek, modern aesthetic with a minimalist yet dynamic arrangement. Each candleholder features a secondary, smaller cylinder attached asymmetrically at the top, creating a visually engaging interplay of geometric forms.
The lamp’s graduated structure, with the central shamash rising highest, adheres to traditional Hanukkah menorah design while introducing a bold, sculptural interpretation. The use of polished sterling silver enhances its elegant simplicity, reflecting light beautifully to create an almost ethereal glow when candles are lit.
Rappaport’s work is known for its architectural precision and balance between tradition and modernity, making this Hanukkah lamp a remarkable fusion of ritual function and contemporary artistry. It serves not only as a ceremonial object but also as a statement piece that embodies both spiritual significance and sophisticated design.

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.
