reddish studio’s ‘menorah’ design uses candlesticks from around the world
rescued candlesticks, which once played an important part in different family ceremonies, are now reused and united to form a candelabrum.
israeli-based design team reddish studio create a timeless design that uses rescued candlesticks from around the world. historically, a menorah is described in the bible as the seven-lamp ancient hebrew candle stand made of pure gold, generally used during religious ceremonies.
the ‘menorah’ candle design uses historical references
‘a menorah is a jewish candelabrum used as a symbol of unity since biblical times,’ says reddish studio designer. the different parts of the reused menorahs now share their life stories, while creating new stories together. the design features a timber box, perforated with seven circular holes in order to position the steel candles holders, where the center-most candle is the biggest of them all.
