Trend Alert: Magical Menorahs

November 26, 2021

At Remodelista we’re ever on the lookout for menorahs of distinction. What we’re hoping to find are designs that do the trick at Hanukkah, and that we’d want to put to use as candleholders throughout the year. Until recently, that was a tall order. Enter the handmade movement: of late a number of creative studios have been contributing to the cause. Here are this year’s eight standouts.
