Black Velvet Tallis & Tefillin Bag with Gold Embroidery #780

Gold floral embroidery curls across the black velvet on 780, which makes it the gentler option among the 700 series bags that surround it. Instead of a single centred crown, the stitching moves outward in curves, and the eye follows the pattern rather than stopping at one point. It is a quieter face than the keser designs, without being plain.

Malchut cuts the bag in the 10.5 by 10 bar mitzvah size, the 14 by 14 large talis size and the 16 by 16 extra large. The middle size is the standard order for a man buying for himself; the bar mitzvah size is proportioned for a boy who is still carrying a tallis katan-sized folded tallis and his new tefillin together. The extra large exists for a thick wool tallis that fights back when you fold it.

Floral work like this photographs well and gives well. Bought for a bar mitzvah, it does not look like a small version of the father's bag, which some boys quietly prefer.
