Significant Hannukah lamp rests on four ball feet supporting a flat platform with six bullets jutting out from its corners and sides. A large thick bullet and casing make up the central tower which holds eight branches with bell shaped cups decreasing in length and height as they wind down around the central column. An attached single servant branch and matching cup jut out from the opposite side of the branches.
Trench Art Hanukkah lamps are generally constructed in a similar fashion with smaller bullet casings attached to gun handles and the casings meant for the placement of the candles. This lamp is unique in the fact that the casing and bullets are intended for support and decoration and not for the placement of candles or wicks.
