烛台 - 银 - Ner Neshama 纪念灯 - 犹太教用品
A German 800 silver Ner Neshama (soul candle holder), the body made circa 1900 and later engraved, probably in the 1950s, with imagery commemorating the establishment of the State of Israel. The piece stands on three round ball feet and its upper section carries five raised arms formed as stylised birds. It is assembled from two separately made sections — an upper and a lower part joined together — a construction characteristic of composite workshop production of the period. Three engraved panels decorate the body: the first depicts a map of the State of Israel as it was understood in the 1950s; the second shows the symbol of the State of Israel together with a Star of David; and the third carries a Hebrew inscription that translates approximately as 'Collect postcards in the return of sons to their border,' a phrase evoking early Zionist longing for the ingathering of exiles. The underside is stamped with the German 800 silver standard mark; no maker's mark or date letter is present. Condition is Good: the piece shows age-related patina consistent with its circa 1900 manufacture and the later addition of the engraved decoration. Weight and dimensions must be recorded by the seller and added before final submission to Catawiki.
