The Zenorah®
The Zenorah® is a great gift for you or someone you know who might need a zen moment. (Don't we all?)
It began with a simple idea: what if a menorah was not fixed but could be rearranged each night as another candle was added. Tabletop zen gardens offer a wonderful opportunity to create endless designs, raking and manipulating sand; and adding, subtracting and moving elements. Combining a zen garden kit with a menorah felt natural, a way to celebrate Hanukkah with the creative impermanence of a zen garden.
For active practitioners or just the “Zen-Curious,” themes of simplicity, mindfulness, and presence can feel deeply familiar to Jewish traditions. The Zenorah® provides the Jewish experience of celebrating Hanukkah and lighting candles, while slowing things down a little, inviting creativity and a touch of mindfulness. It adds a new dimension to your nightly candle lighting.
And, as an added bonus, unlike other menorahs, you can enjoy your Zenorah® year-round as a zen garden. Simply turn over the stone candle holders or remove them as you like. You can also add additional stones, tea lights, tapers and votive candles and other accessories. It makes a great Zenterpiece!

Kind words
This is such a clever product. Thank you. Smoothing and raking the sand is my favorite part. There is something very relaxing about it.
My grandchildren loved the Zenorah! It is also very restful as a zen garden. I love to garden, so this is an item I like to keep around.
I just wanted to share that my cousin and her family absolutely love their Zenorah! It was a perfect gift!
We received our Zenorah. So well wrapped and boxed. Impressive! Can't wait to use it!
I am in love with my Zenorah!
I bought the Zenorah for one of my Jewish clients and was so pleased to receive the following note, "Thank you so much for the incredibly thoughtful Hanukkah gift. We are excited to work on our first Zenorah design."
