Megillah Case, Contemporary Scroll Black Fur #1275

The contemporary scroll is the cleaner-lined cousin of the classical tube, and design 1275 finishes it in black fur. The proportions are the difference — a more modern body, with the fur used as a deliberate accent rather than as the whole face of the case. Against a black tube the fur registers as texture, which is the effect intended.

Two lengths are made, 17.7 inches and 14 inches, and the choice is dictated by the scroll: full megillos need the long case, shorter ones sit better in the 14. The personalized snap-on handle is included with both, and since it clips off, the case can be handed to someone else or set down on a shtender without a strap swinging loose.

Malchut also cuts 1275 as a tallis and tefillin bag. Ordering the pair is the straightforward way to give a bar mitzvah bochur something that will still look like a set when he is carrying both in ten years.
