Velvet Tallis & Tefillin Bag with Symmetric Motif (Design #V1440)

Symmetry is the organising idea on #V1440. The embroidered motif is balanced left to right, anchored on the centre line of the bag, so the face settles rather than pulling the eye to one side. Worked on Malchut's majestic velvet, the thread sits against deep pile and picks up light along its edges.

Offered at 10.5 x 10 for the bar mitzvah bag, 14 x 14 for the large talis bag and 16 x 16 for the extra large. Symmetrical designs scale cleanly, so the motif keeps its balance in every size. The practical question is only the tallis — a boy's tallis in the smallest, a regular one in the middle, a heavy wool one in the largest.

Balanced faces like this one age well. There is nothing fashionable about the layout to look dated in a decade, which matters on a bag someone will carry every morning.
