Home And Garden Red Maple Wenge Menorah

2025

This one of a kind menorah is sculpted from spalted red maple and grounded by solid wenge legs, celebrating the natural drama of the wood itself. Cavities, spalting lines, and organic voids are not concealed but intentionally revealed, transforming the menorah into a functional sculpture.

The live-edge maple top retains the tree’s original contours, while the underside is carved to emphasize negative space and depth. Dark wenge legs frame the piece, providing contrast and architectural balance. Black metal candle inserts complete the composition with a quiet, modern restraint.

This menorah is designed to be viewed from all angles. It belongs on a table or mantle where its form can be fully appreciated, both during Hanukkah and throughout the year.

A Note on Natural Features

Spalting, voids, cracks, and color variation are natural characteristics of the wood and are integral to the design. These features are stabilized where necessary and do not affect structural integrity.
