Joy Stember creates this artistic Havdalah prayer candle holders. It's made from pewter and brass, that is fabricated using a lead free soft solder. The texture is roll printed using a rolling mill. Havdalah is a ritual that takes place at the end of Shabbat. Just as candles are lit to welcome Shabbat on Friday evenings, havdalah (Hebrew for “separation”) marks the end of Shabbat and separates it from regular weekdays. According to Jewish legend, we each receive an extra soul that makes us especially attuned to the spiritual world during Shabbat. This soul leaves when Shabbat is over and the smell of spices is meant to revive us as it departs.
