V91 Menorah for the Shaare Sedek Synagogue

"... stylish, elegant, and bespoke metalwork ..."

Hale Barns, Cheshire

This contemporary aluminium menorah for the Hale Barns Synagogue was designed by WAJW Architects and made by Verdigris.

Its body was water jet cut from a single piece of 40mm thick aluminium. The infill panels were designed to tie in with Tree of Life/Fruits of the Land themes used elsewhere in the new building. Discreet pins and spacers were used to hold these in place for crisp and uncluttered joinery. All the front and rear faces of the menorah were given a deep rich polish to contrast with the matt texture of the water jet cut sides. Machined sockets hold oil filled glass vials lit during Hanukkah.
