Silver Candlesticks - Zadok, Jerusalem
ADDITIONAL INFO
A pair of silver Sabbath candlesticks, handmade by the Jewish-Yemenite silversmith family of Zadok, decorated with silver filigree work. Marked "ZADOK, MADE IN ISRAEL, STERLING". There are slight differences between the two candlesticks.
The notable silversmith Avraham Zadok and his family immigrated to Israel in 1949 from Sana'a, Yemen, and a year later established a jewelry and silversmith workshop in Jerusalem. During the 1960s, the Zadok family opened a store near the King David Hotel in Jerusalem and began to engage in Judaica, successfully adapting to the field of goldsmithing in Israel.
