One bud shall be under the first pair of branches extending from the lampstand, a second bud under the second pair, and a third bud under the third pair — six branches in all. The buds at the junction points where the branches meet the central shaft provide structural and decorative reinforcement at every connection point. Six branches, three pairs, three buds at the junction points — the entire lampstand is a unified flowering structure where every connection is marked with blossom. The lampstand is not a functional fixture with decorative elements added; it is an integrated work where beauty and function are inseparable. The light it produces and the beauty of its form are both expressions of the God it represents in the sanctuary.
