A completely new concept in metalwork was used to create these truly striking pieces. Each one-of-a-piece combines contrasting hand-ground metal and brushed aluminum and is wrapped by hand-embossed copper featuring contemporary typography of Biblical passages in Hebrew and Aramaic. The candlesticks feature passages about honoring the Sabbath. It is recommended that drip cups be used with all candle holders to keep the holders cleaner and/or to avoid damage.
