16th Century Italy Menorah

This gorgeous menorah is destined to become an instant heirloom in your family!  The brightness it will bring into your home will last not just for eight days, but all year, every year!

The stylized acanthus leaf and scroll work design on the backplate of this Hanukkah lamp are reminiscent of late Renaissance and Baroque decorative motifs.  The backplate is punctuated by an archway and crowned by a palmette.  The font for the shamash (servant light) is missing on the original lamp.

It is intended for use with (olive or lamp) oil and cloth wicks, but may be carefully used with candles also (by melting the bottom of each candle just before pressing it into the cup).
