Exodus 25:34-36

And on the lampstand there shall be four cups shaped like almond blossoms with buds and petals.

For the six branches that extend from the lampstand, a bud must be under the first pair of branches, a bud under the second pair, and a bud under the third pair.

The buds and branches are to be all of one piece with the lampstand, hammered out of pure gold.
