The unique hannukiah collection of Rabbi Hoffman – one of the greatest
collectors of Judaica in the world – sheds light on one of the most beloved
Judaica items.
They began as modest clay oil vessels, but as the years passed, gifted craftsmen
turned the hannukiah into amazing works of art. During a visit to the home of
Judaica collector Yaakov Hoffman, one of the greatest collectors of Judaica
in the world, Mishpacha had the privilege of entering the world of fascinating
hannukiahs, which can be assumed you will not find in any Judaica store.
