This is a beautiful and quality blue and gold Menorah. It is one of the most known symbols of the Jewish people that would look fabulous in your home or would make a thoughtful gift. Made from polished pewter. The menorah is described in the Bible as the seven-branched ancient lamp-stand and used in the portable sanctuary set up by Moses in the wilderness and later in the Temple in Jerusalem. Fresh olive oil of the purest quality was burned daily to light its lamps. The Menorah has been a symbol of Judaism since ancient times and is the emblem on the coat of arms of the modern state of Israel.
