Happy Hanukkah from the Hardware Aisle!

The Nail Menorah’s golden solder and copper candle-holders span a series of creatively reused flat-cut nails.

The elegant cantilevered design reminds me of those “My boss is a Jewish carpenter” bumper stickers I used to see down south–though I don’t think that product, by metalsmith Gary Rosenthal, is precisely

what those stickers’ owners had in mind.

The Jewish Gift Palace was actually boxing up a couple of Nail Menorahs when I called that daylight. It’s a popular item, I’m told, but they don’t know whether the buyers are actually into the DIY aspect of it.

Maybe they just have good taste.
