Custom Tallis & Tefillin Bag with Embroidered Front Panel (Design #5055)

What gives design #5055 its presence is the embroidered front panel — the stitching is treated as the face of the bag rather than as decoration applied to it, and there is no fur or contrasting leather drawing attention away. Malchut produces the piece to order, which is why it is catalogued by design number.

Three sizes are available and the difference between them is real. The bar mitzvah bag, at 10.5 by 10 inches, holds tefillin and suits a boy's hands. The fourteen inch bag is the adult standard, taking a folded tallis with both tefillin. The sixteen inch extra large is the one to order for a heavy wool tallis, or when you want the tefillin sitting in their own space rather than wedged against the wool.

An embroidered front like this photographs well at a simcha and still looks right on an ordinary weekday, which is the argument for choosing it over a fur-trimmed bag if only one bag is going to be bought.
