- This luminaria is intended for yahrzeit candles that are already in glass or tin ONLY. It is not meant for column or pillar candles. Do not place a loose candle directly in the luminaria.
- Please note this luminaria can also be used with any standard 24 hour candle in glass or tin. Yahrtzeit refers to the day of a person’s passing. On the day of the Yahrtzeit, it is customary to light a 24 hour candle at home to honor the memory of the deceased. The Jewish day begins at night, so the candle should be lit in the evening. Even if the candle burns for longer than twenty-four hours, it should not be extinguished. If the Yahrtzeit falls on a Saturday, the candle must be lit on Friday afternoon before sunset.
- 2.75" l x 2.75" w x 3.00" h
Do not leave any lit candles unattended.

About the brand
Rite Lite
Rite Lite has made Jewish holiday goods since 1949, when Holocaust survivor Jacob Rosenthal turned a clever Shabbat candleholder into a business.
- Since
- 1949
- Craft
- Holiday Judaica and gifts
Rite Lite began in Brooklyn in 1949. Jacob Rosenthal and his wife, Miriam, came to America after the Holocaust, and when he tried to return to work as a lumber merchant, he found the trade closed to anyone who wouldn't work on Saturdays. "Giving up the Sabbath was out of the question for us," Miriam recalled.
His way in was a European novelty: a spring-loaded metal candleholder, later called the "Rite Lite." He took the idea to Murray Zuckerman's Lower East Side menorah workshop, and the two started out with that candleholder and a handful of menorahs.
Today the catalog covers nearly every holiday, from menorahs, candles and dreidels to kids' pajamas, slipper socks, crafts, decorations and pet toys.
