LEXUS OF LAKESIDE

ing bees both for honey and wax,
making their own candles and
supplying wax to other produc-
ers.
Ya'arat Hadvash candles
maintain the honeycomb pattern
even as they are painstakingly
rolled by hand. They are won-
derfully decorative, and particu-
larly suitable for the High Holy
days. This year the company is
introducing a line of Chanukah
candles in earth tones.
"Since the company is essen-
tially a two-person operation,"
Gila explains apologetically, "the
volume of candles is not sufficient
for exports." Thus, although re-
quests come from as far away as
New Zealand, their candles are
available only in fine houseware
shops in Israel.
Etzion Candles at Kibbutz
Meirav on Mt. Gilboa, is a high-
volume producer of dipped can-
dles. At last, taking at face value
that this is not an attempt at in-
dustrial espionage. Etzion's dis-
tribution manager admits that
the total number of Chanukah
candles his company has just
shipped to the United States is
"in the seven figures." Seeking
their pastel-hued candles, ma-
chine-dipped in paraffin and
packaged in clear hexagonal and
round containers, made me real-
ize that this is the source of the
Chanukah candles I buy.
Etzion also produces decora-
tive candles and carved havdalah
candles. The latter are dipped in
layers of colors, then carved and
shaped by hand while they are
still soft.
One other company worthy of
note, which in 1992 was awarded
second place for Best Imported
Product by Japan, is Jerusalem
Candles. Producing purely deco-
rative candles, they use a secret
process that even the company's
Glowing Candle subsidiary in
San Diego does not know. Their
patterned veneer is created here
and shipped to the United States.
Since this outer shell does not
melt, a stained-glass effect is pro-
duced as the candle burns down.
When the inner core is used up,
one can just pop in a common re-
placement candle and start
again.
Among the range of 32 designs
which the company currently
offers are Christmas motifs and
colors. The majority, however, are
complex designs, each color
worked individually from wax.
Jerusalem Candles is run by
American-born Danny Rudick.
After receiving his masters of
business administration 10 years
ago, he came to Israel looking to
start a business. He found a five-
person workshop producing can-
dles, and today employs some 40
immigrants from Ethiopia and
the former Soviet Union, along
with newly demobilized soldiers.
I certainly won't be casual this
year about buying my Chanukah
candles.1 I
