ArborBrook Judaica is proud to announce the launch of the Magnorah, a patent-pending menorah and candle system designed to make Chanukah candle lighting safer, cleaner and more enjoyable for families.

Created by husband-and-wife team Geoff Bauer and Elana Bernstein, a lawyer and physician duo, the Magnorah reimagines an age-old ritual with an elegant, modern twist: magnetic candles that click securely into place. This breakthrough design prevents wobbling, tipping and messy wax buildup, solving one of the most persistent safety challenges associated with traditional menorahs.

“Every year we’d gather our kids close to light the menorah, then immediately shoo them back from the unstable candles,” said co-founder Geoff Bauer. “We kept thinking: why don’t the candles fit? That’s what sparked the Magnorah.”

The result is a menorah that performs like no other. Each candle features a precision-engineered metal base that connects securely to magnets hidden within each arm of the menorah. Once attached, the candle stays put, even if the menorah is turned upside down, a feature the founders—and their kids—love to demonstrate.

“Lighting the menorah should be fun, not nerve-wracking,” said co-founder Elana Bernstein. “The Magnorah lets families enjoy the warmth and beauty of Chanukah without worrying about candles toppling over.”

With its combination of traditional beauty and modern engineering, the Magnorah is also an inspired choice for gift-giving. Its thoughtful design, premium materials and elegant presentation make it a meaningful Chanukah gift for parents, adult children, newlyweds or anyone who treasures the holiday ritual.

The Magnorah is now available through ArborBrook Judaica’s website in a limited first production run.
