Offered here is an exquisite, finely cast miniature 925 sterling silver Hanukkah Menorah (Hanukkiah). Standing at a highly collectible travel size of approximately 3" by 3", this diminutive piece features dense, masterfully executed Rococo-style scrollwork along the branches and stem, embellished with fine cross-hatched textured cartouches.
The central stem supports a balanced, classical layout with eight beautifully nested candle fonts and an elevated central shamash (servant light). The lower trunk splits into elegant, sweeping buttress scrolls that anchor to a tiered, circular domed base decorated with stylized repoussé lappets and a geometric diamond-patterned border. The reverse of the far-right branch is cleanly struck with a sharp 925 fineness hallmark.
This miniature masterpiece packs a substantial heft for its size, weighing a solid 32 grams. Its diminutive proportions make it an ideal cabinet piece, travel menorah, or premium addition to a collection of fine silver Judaica.
