Intro

Bring color to your Shabbat table with this pair of hand painted candlesticks, holding the two lights kindled to welcome Shabbat. Pomegranates in gold and cream drift across a deep navy ground, framed by gilded bands at the rim, waist, and foot of each hourglass form. The pomegranate has long stood for blessing and abundance, a fitting motif for the table where the week begins. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has shaped Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Formed in metal and finished by hand, each candlestick takes its shape from a narrow waist that flares into a wide foot, with each piece signed Emanuel near the base. The sockets are sized for standard taper candles, and the pair stands 5.7 inches tall. Hand painted in navy, gold, and cream, the pomegranate design and gilded bands are worked individually across each piece, so slight variation between the two is part of the piece.

Gift Ideas

Sold as a pair, these candlesticks make a natural gift for a wedding, engagement, or housewarming, especially for a couple setting up a Jewish home. They suit a bar or bat mitzvah or an anniversary equally well. The rich color and gold detailing give them a warm presence that reads as a gift on its own, without needing an occasion attached.

Care Instructions

Wipe the candlesticks clean with a soft, dry cloth rather than soaking or scrubbing them. Let any wax cool fully before easing it away, and keep the pair clear of abrasive cleaners so the painted finish and gold bands stay bright.
