Antique Leather Haggadah Cover, Kaftor for Women, White #1597

The Kaftor cover in white antique leather, design #1597. This is the women's shape in a number that Malchut also builds for men, and white is its cleanest reading — pale across the panel with the antique shading holding at the folds so the leather still has some depth in candlelight rather than going chalky.

It is made in a single version, so there is no size or finish to settle. A cover like this is bought either for a woman's own haggadah or as a gift at the point where someone is setting up a first Pesach of her own. The leather does the ordinary structural work — square corners, flat boards, a spine that survives being opened and closed a few hundred times over two nights — and it keeps her sefer distinguishable from everyone else's copy of the same edition.

#1597 is the design behind Pesach seder set #995. Ordering the cover with the set puts one number on the haggadah in her hand and on the pieces in the middle of the table, which is a genuinely difficult thing to achieve buying from separate makers.
