Menorah as art, or art as menorah?
However you choose to look at it, this one-of-a-kind menorah is a perfect example of functional art for use each year on Chanukah, and all year-long when displayed as Jewish art.
This menorah was inspired by the stones of Jerusalem's Western Wall under a cerulean blue sky. It is hand-shaped it in organic lines from clay hewn from Israel's holy ground. I used a contemporary approach to the surface design to reflect its relevancy and use to this very day.
It has hand-painted 22K gold accents that are fired on after the bisque and glaze firings and a sign of the preciousness of Jerusalem.
This is a gift that will be treasured for years to come, whether you give it to yourself, or to someone lucky enough to receive it as a wedding gift, or for any simcha or occasion that calls for something special.
As with all handmade art, no two pieces are identical. Limited edition pieces are created in the same basic shape, size, style and palette, but there will be small differences due to handmade nature of my work.
