Two menorahs owned by the late fashion icon and actress Elizabeth Taylor will be on display for Hanukkah at a gallery in New York and then auctioned in January.<\/span><\/p>\n

The menorahs will be showcased at the J Greenstein Gallery in New York throughout the holiday season along with a menorah exhibition.<\/span><\/p>\n

They were purchased at Taylor\u2019s estate sale and will be up from auction by J. Greenstein & Co., a boutique auction house that deals exclusively with antique Jewish ritual objects and art.<\/span><\/p>\n

The taller sterling silver menorah is estimated to be valued between $7,000-$9,000 and was given to Taylor by her head of security, who brought it back from Israel for her as a gift.<\/span><\/p>\n

The shorter silver metal Godinger menorah, together with a cobalt leaded glass Star of David, is estimated at between $15,000 \u2013 $20,000.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jonathan Greenstein, founder and president of J. Greenstein & Co., said that along with Taylor\u2019s menorahs, the upcoming auction will feature items representing \u201cover a hundred years of Jewish heritage, from 1700s Eastern Europe to Hollywood in the middle of the 20th century,\u201d including a passport that belonged to Revisionist Zionist leader Ze\u2019ev Jabotinsky and a letter signed by physicist Albert Einstein.<\/span><\/p>\n
