Held by: Montreal Holocaust Museum via Canadian Jewish Heritage Network (incl. Alex Dworkin Canadian Jewish Archives)
Dates: 1875-1900 (indexed as 1875–1900)
Level: item
Scope & content: Round base with beveled ledges along the circumference. The column tapes out and then in, like 2 bells attached together. At the top of the column is another metal sphere, with a bird (sparrow ?) at the very top of the structure, which is offset to the right. At each side of the metal sphere (below the bird) are ornate arms: filigree shaped with openworked details and leaves coming out of the bottom centre. At the end of each arm is a tulip shaped candle holder, attached to a column and round base. The top of the candle holder has a raised rim in the center with high relief petal-like details around the circumference. The holders screw onto the arms.
