Steph the 2 brass ones are from Israel. None are antiques, but the smaller brass one I bought 35 years ago in Jerusalem, so I guess it's heading towards antique status!!

We usually just pick one and use if for all the nights. Last year we used the shoe one, this year we are using the taller steel/silver one in the left of the photo. It is tradition to place the lit menorah in your front window so that it literally "illuminates the world." We have an electric one that we put in our window - we add a flame shaped bulb each night.

all the best
