Large Silver Hanukkah Lamp – Jewish Silversmith Isaac Ehrlich – Warsaw, Poland
An upright Hanukkah Lamp. Warsaw, Poland, [ca. 1908-1915].
Silver (marked; maker's mark: I. Ehrlich), cast and embossed.
The stem chased with swags and foliage. Eight branches, decorated with rocaille and bunches of grapes, with oil fonts shaped as goblets set on square bases. The Shamash (servant light) at the top of the central stem is removable. Set on a square terraced base, supported by four legs.
