Unique and impressive silver menorah, Iraq early 20th century
An unusual menorah made in a circle, the central reed is octagonal to which the rest of the reeds are attached. Kinetic menorah structure - the neck of the menorah tilts on an axis, which allows the top of the menorah to fold and thus hang it horizontally on the wall.

Total weight: 742g
Signs of exhaustion and slight bends
Although today it is common practice not to light Hanukkah candles in a circle, so that there will be a clear recognition of the number of candles, these menorahs are nevertheless kosher, and were sometimes customary in the Jewish diaspora
