Arts and Culture

Dear Jonathan, I've inherited a strange sort of Jewish cast metal clock that's nearly 6 inches in height, about which I know nothing, except that it might have belonged to my grandfather.

Dear Jonathan: My father purchased this menorah in the mid-1940s at a Zionist Organization of America gathering in New York City. Could shed any light on its origins and/or value?

My husband bought these crystal plates from an acquaintance whose family background is not Jewish and who had brought them from Czechoslovakia shortly after the Second World War (she had been storing them in her attic).

Dear Jonathan, Two great uncles of mine fought in then Palestine during WWI and brought back pieces of trench art as souvenirs. I'd love to know more about them.
