"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.
