Tallis & Tefillin Bag in Black Leather with Black or Two-Tone Fur #4014

Two finishes carry design #4014, both on black leather. The first pairs it with black fur, which keeps everything in a single tone and lets the cut of the panel do the work. The second uses black and white fur, where the lighter hairs run through the dark and give the front of the bag some depth. Nothing else changes between them; the leather body, the embroidery and the proportions stay the same.

Sizes run bar mitzvah at 10.5 by 10 inches, large talis bag at 14 by 14, and extra large at 16 by 16. The middle size is the one most men end up with, since it takes a folded tallis and both tefillin without strain. Go to 16 by 16 if the tallis is heavy wool or if you also slide a tallis katan in beside it.

Design #4014 is also available as a siddur cover, which is the reason to note the number now. A man who carries a matching bag and siddur to shul on Shabbos has something that looks deliberate rather than assembled over the years, and it makes a strong chosson gift.
