Description: Height 275 mm. Diameter 70 mm.

Pear shaped finials, decorated with repousse flowers and vegetation. Each finial has a hinge and clasp so that it can be opened and filled with fragrant leaves to glorify the mitzvah. The upper section bears chains with pendants that hang from a serrated dome. Similar chains with pendants hang from the center of the finial and the bottom of the pear. Altogether there are three rows of delicate chains creating a very impressive look for the finials.
