"Light Delight" Shabat candle holders by Avi Biran

"Light Delight " SHABAT CANDLES HOLDERS

You shall surely open the electric bulb and know from where you came, for a commandment is a candle, and the Torah is light, and you call the Sabbath delight.

The design of this candles holder inspired by the electric bulb. Edward Gibbon once said: "I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know no way of judging of the future but by the past". The modern electric light bulb shape is hiding the two oil lamps that was used by our ancestors The light bulb is placed in a container that keep the oil that can be used beside different sizes of candles. One oil lamp is marked with the Text "Shamor..." (Keep the Sabbath...) and the other with "Zachor..." (Remember the Sabbath...). After use with oil by placing back the bulb the remaining oil will drip back to the container. The text is combining four verses with a small modern twist.
