This original Copper Candle Holder is the new creation of Jeweler Yaniv Shapira who had a booth next to our Yevu Yashir booth in the Yavna Bazaar which lasted two days and ended yesterday. The Candle Holder is inspired by Uri Ofir's research which claims that the Candle Holders of the Tabernacle Menorah were made by the Lord in Star of David shape. Photo is courtesy of Yaniv Shapira.
