The Spode Judaica Sabbath candlesticks are sold in a pair, are elegantly designed and used to officially welcome the beginning of Shabbat at sunset. The two candles are lit, representing the two commandments "remember" and "observe," and a blessing is recited. The Hebrew word on the candlestick is Shabbat. The design on the Spode Judaica candlesticks is based on historic Judaic manuscripts from the 1880's, influenced by early ceramic tile motifs, and features the traditional Judaic colors of blue and white. The dominant motif consists of stylized flowers and vines, interwoven amongst the straight-edged Star of David. The blue and white color references both history and symbolism, as it is consistent with the colors of the flag of Israel and is based on the signature Spode transferware technique famous in the ceramic industry since the 18th century. The Sabbath Candlesticks by Spode will make a memorable gift for a friend or family member. The Spode design is unlike any other Judaica product in the market, and highly collectable
