Hanukkah Menorahs are famous throughout the world. Every Menorah has its own story: a special inspiration, or artistic style. 

Models of many sizes and shapes have been made since ancient times, This nine-branched candelabrum is lit during the eight-day Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. Eight of the nine branches hold lights (candles or oil lamps) that symbolize the eight nights of the holiday. On each night, one more light is lit than the previous night, until on the final night all eight branches are ignited. The ninth branch holds a candle, called the shamash ("helper" or "servant"), which is used to light the other eight and is placed offset from the other eight candle holders.

The Hanukkah menorah commemorates but is distinct from, the seven-branched menorah used in the ancient Temple in Jerusalem. Because of its association with Judaism and the widespread worldwide recognition of Hanukkah, the Hanukkah menorah is one of the most collectible articles of Judaism.
