BeskrivelseBrass Oil lamp. According to the label on the box in which it is stored, it is antique. It has a back plate pierced with graceful entwined foliage centering on the shamash . The back plate is lit by a row of eight oil pans, each with a well and a protruding lip to receive the wax. The row of pans has been cast separately and is secured by projections which fit into slots in the back plate. The single matching pan for the shamash is pinned in a similar way. This style of Chanukiah was originally intended to be hung against a wall.
