Luka Pirnat, an industrial designer in Ljubljana, Slovenia, made a seven-branched menorah with Zippo lighters. He calls it the Zippo Gasolier, which is a reference to gas-burning chandeliers and candelabras that were once common before electric lighting. It’s an elegant, carefully-crafted piece of metalwork.

The seven-branch menorah is the one used in the ancient temple, and has become symbolic if Judaism. The nine-branch menorah is for Hanukkah, symbolic of the eight days of miracle oil, plus one to light them all with.
