designers and fabricators of stained glass windows for synagogues
Each mouth-blown glass eternal lights is made to order and can be colored according to our glass palette and sized appropriately to fit the scale of the sanctuary. They can be fitted to hang or be mounted as a sconce.
Close to our intended shape, on this case, used as a sconce lamp.
In this artists' conception, the "fire sky" Ner Tamid is a triangular shape with colors drawn from the "fire sky" palette for the stained glass windows. This globe has a blue rim and is designed to hang from the room's ceiling.
This is the same shape as the Ner Tamid above, but blown in opposite colors, i.e. "water sky" blues with an orange rim.

The graceful shape of the Ner Tamid reflects the up-flowing curves of the letter "Shin" on the ark doors. The colors are drawn from the water and fire motifs of the surrounding stained glass windows.
