      This is something new to me. I have never seen an eight candle menorah without a place for the Shamash in the center.

      It’s a menorah . There is supposed to be another little cup at the end for a candle to light the others I can’t find anything like it anywhere

      valentino I will post a link to show you. The link shows the Menorah with eight candles, four on each side of the Shamash candle which sits higher than the others. The Shamash is used to light the other candles. Normally with seven candles the center one is also elevated. This being a modern piece no doubt someone took liberties with the design. It isn't terribly unusual but first one like this I have seen.

      Jcodyjennings are you sure this isn't a Hanukiah?
