Late 19th Silver-Plated American Hanukkah Lamp

About the Item

A beautiful, silver-plated Hanukkah lamp made in the United States. Typical of late 19th century revivalism in Judaica, the lamp is designed in a combination of styles such as the rococo scrollwork and diamond pattern and the Gothic niches for the columns. A pair of lions holding a Menorah adorns the center of the lamp's backplate. Surrounded by flower motives and above them a crown, they all come together underneath an elegantly designed canopy. Designed as small vases, the eight candleholders at the lamp's base are surrounded at the front by a designed fence. The lamp is standing on four legged base, each decorated with classical design. A detachable servant light protrudes from the top of the back plate. Every item in Menorah Galleries is accompanied by a lifetime “Certificate of Authenticity” and additional documentation and information regarding the individual artifact and its culture.

19th Century Iraqi Silver Hanukkah Lamp Menorah
Located in New York, NY
Handcut strips of silver that have been bent into curvilinear shapes, with semicircle of candle-sockets, complete with drip-pans. A cast-made pair of birds, appearing to be ducks or geese, flank the servant light, while at top as the finial, a large casting of a hen or rooster. While this overall form of lamp is known as hailing from Iraq, we cannot locate any other Iraqi lamps featuring the animals displayed on our example. Birds such as peacocks were widely used in Iraqi and other Middle-Eastern and North African Chanukah lamps, however the usage of the animals featured on our lamp likely have more to do with the surrounding Islamic culture than revealing any meaning in Judaism, which is typical overall for many motifs found on Jewish ritual...
