Intro

Bring color to your Shabbat table with a pair of hand painted candlesticks, each side decorated with perched birds and trailing vines in bold blues and reds. The two halves share a matching curved edge and push together into a single block when not in use. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose colorful Judaica has filled Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Carved from wood and finished by hand with layered paint, the candlesticks form a pair with mirrored curved profiles that fit together into one solid block. Each holder measures about 4 by 1.5 by 3 inches and takes a standard Shabbat candle. Lit weekly for Shabbat and Yom Tov, the pair separates easily for lighting and rejoins for storage or display.

Gift Ideas

The bird motif and fitted design make these candlesticks a memorable wedding, engagement, or housewarming gift. They suit a bar or bat mitzvah or an anniversary equally well, and work nicely for anyone setting up a Jewish home. Their compact size and interlocking shape also make them a striking gift on their own, outside any particular occasion.

Care Instructions

Wipe the candlesticks with a soft, dry cloth to keep the painted surface clean. Avoid soaking the wood or using abrasive cleaners, and keep them away from direct heat so the colors stay vivid.
