For the designs of his candlesticks, Szekman liked to incorporate grape and vine motifs, as an allusion to Shabbat kiddush. On your candlesticks, there are multiple depictions of grapes and vines at the very bottom, on the “feet.” Although your candlesticks are highly decorative, the value I am going to give you is modest, for two reasons. The first is that in the period between 1880 and 1924, when two and a half million Jews left Eastern Europe to come here, the few items they shlepped with them were those that were most important to them.
