Most listings show nine-branch menorahs (for the eight nights plus shamash). Many explicitly list compatibility with traditional menorah tapers and note a common taper diameter of 3/8 inch; at least one listing also states compatibility with “Any Candle.”
Menorahs are commonly displayed on mantels, tables, shelves, and other tabletops for indoor viewing. Larger models may be placed on the floor or used as showpieces in entryways, dining rooms, living rooms or foyers. Some listings also describe models suitable for outdoor use.
Hand wash gently with mild soap and dry immediately. Avoid the dishwasher and abrasive scrubbers or cleaners. For hardened wax drips, one listing recommends chilling the piece briefly so the wax can be removed more easily.
Listings show a variety of finishes and color treatments, including gold, brass tones, black, silver-toned or polished alloy surfaces. Specific finishes vary by model and listing.
Reported menorah sizes in the listings range from about 7.5 inches up to 47.5 inches in height, roughly 2 to 27 inches in width, and about 5 to 20 inches in depth. As an example, a stoneware serving platter in the results is about 14.88 inches long by 5.75 inches wide.
Electric models commonly include LED bulbs (sometimes flame-shaped) and are described as remaining cool to the touch; listings note these can be suitable for indoor or outdoor placement. Candle-style menorahs are for traditional taper candles, with at least one listing specifying 3/8-inch tapers.
The stoneware platter is listed as microwave- and dishwasher-safe and is described as easy to clean after use.
