Pair of authentic, 19th-century large, solid brass, seven branches Menorahs - the most recognizable symbol of Judaism.

This magnificent pair of Menorahs was made in Poland in the second half of the 19th century. Each Menorah is composed of a multi-baluster stem rising from a round base, fitted with six scrolling branches, topped by an urn form of candle holders and drip pans, with matching central candle holders.

Each part of the Menorah is turned on a primitive lathe; therefore, each piece is different, including the baluster stem turned rings and the drip pans, which are out of the center. Also, the thread on each screw is hand-rolled by primitive tools, so each screws thread is slightly different, which is visible proof that candelabras are original antiques and not reproductions made in the 20th century like most of the Polish brass menorah and other Polish brass Judaica on the market.

We will provide the buyer with a certificate of authenticity.
