This heavy cast aluminum chanukiah brings practicality to a timeless ritual. When removed from the base the candleholder's two parts can be separated, making the chanukiah exceptionally easy to clean. Beneath the candle holder platform is a storage compartment with room for 44 candles—enough for the eight nights of Chanukah. A gently raised center spot elevates the shammash. The Block is a substantial form, weighing four pounds.
