Her Whirligig creation from the same year adds an element of whimsy with its spinning motion when exposed to wind or manual force—a true testament to Sandler's playful imagination. The Match Holder created in 1939 combines functionality with aesthetic appeal—an everyday object transformed into a work of art under Selma Sandler's skilled hands.
