Antique Brass Oil Lamp Menorah Beautiful Judaica:
$45.00

Well, I am back from a monster shopping trip to the World’s Longest Yard Sale – we shop Ohio every year and then stop at some of my favorite spots in Indiana to buy from. Spent 2 whole days taking photos and still not done – I have a LOT and I’ll be listing for weeks. There’s something for everyone - primitive antiques, ephemera, military, railroad, industrial, farm finds – you name it, I have it and it’s all unique – you’ll want to keep checking, as I will list every day. Enjoy!

Here is a beautiful solid brass Menorah - it\'s an old oil lamp style, with 8 wells at the bottom and one larger well at the top. These would have held a wick for burning. It has fancy relief decoration all over, including a bird on the top and one on either side. This is a heavy piece, weighing just over 1 1/4 lbs, and you can see that the patina is dark - almost black at the wells (so black that I magnet tested it to make sure it\'s not cast iron!) and on the back and underside, with spots of black on the frontside too. It is unmarked, so I do not know the maker. It measures 6 1/8" widest, 1 3/8" deep at the bottom wells, 1 5/8" deep at the top well (the depth is measured from the front of the piece, not the back, so you can add 1/8 - 1/4" for total depth), it stands 8 5/8\' tall to the very top. I\'m assuming that this is a piece that is supposed to be hung on the wall. Whereas it will stand on it\'s own on a flat surface, it leans toward the back, and can tip back easily if pushed. It\'s dusty, and has some spots of oxidation, and could use a good cleaning - I do not clean or mess with as found patina in any way. It\'s in excellent condition, maybe some light scratching to the metal, but that would be it - it\'s in great shape, and I think it\'s gorgeous.

Customer Satisfaction is extremely important to me. If you receive an item and are not satisfied in any way, please contact me before leaving response.

Please ask if you have any questions, or feel free to inform me if you have any information about one of my listings. As with any of my items, if you ever need extra photos, let me know. My white stool, my rug and anything else that you see other than the item discussed are not included in the sale!

I’m happy to combine shipments for you. If you win an item and plan to offer on another, please hold to pay for the first item and request a combined shipping invoice once you’ve won the other item/s. I do ask that there be no more than 7 days from the purchase of the first item – I will invoice after 7 days as I cannot hold the items longer than that. Please know that some items cannot be combined, though, do to size, weight, or safety of the items. Most items set to ship in USPS FLAT RATE boxes; I cannot combine due to size restrictions. Please look at the shipping alternatives in the listings. I only mail USPS and pack in the best manner that we feel safe – I cannot change shipment methods after the close of an sale (i.e. rolling an old map to save money when I have it set to ship flat), especially if I feel the requested method is not safe. Again, I only ship USPS and charge actual cost to ship only. I ship within one business day of receipt of your payment, unless there’s a holiday that closes the post office, or I will notify you otherwise. As I shop for treasures on the weekends, I most often do not ship on Saturday.

Many of my items come from local rural estate sales and sales. They are coming right from the barn or attic to you - dust, cobwebs and all! I do not clean and polish before I sell – they are in the condition found, as you see in my photos, and I leave the patina exactly as it was when I bought the item. I do my best to photo and describe all thoroughly.

Please email me before offerding if you do not use PayPal, and we can discuss possible payment alternatives. Payment is due within 3 business days after close of sale.

With postage rates increasing regularly, I am shipping more and more items Parcel Select. Parcel Select travels by land or rail and the packages do not leave the regional post office until they fill up a bin going in the same direction (so the estimated delivery is truly only an estimate – not exact). The post office estimates 5-7 days, but it can go up higher, sometimes even 3-4 weeks in peak mailing times like the holidays. I always provide a tracking number, so you can see where your item is on any day.

Sales tax will be added for Illinois buyers.

…and thanks so much for looking, I appreciate having you as a customer!
