LET YOUR LIGHTS SHINE

Feruzi Shabbat Candles -These hand painted candles are truly a work of art! Featuring gorgeous blue, white and light blue tones for a festive look. Each candle is hand-poured and painted for an artisanal style. Because of this, no two candles may be exactly alike. This set is named “Kileo” after the African word that represents “modern.” In African culture, modern design is represented through mod lines and earthy colors.

Although these candles are perfect for shabbat celebrations, they do not feature any Jewish emblems or symbols and can be used as standard home decor. Perfect for a variety of styles!
