Intro

Give a meaningful start to daily prayer with this embroidered silk tefillin bag. The V'ata Shalom blessing is worked in deep blue across the front, framed by a floral and geometric border in shades of turquoise and gold. The words, drawn from the Shabbat evening prayers, speak of peace extended over the home and all who dwell within it. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has graced Jewish homes for over two decades.

Build and Use

Made of silk and finished with embroidered detail, the bag measures 10 x 8 inches, sized to hold a standard tefillin set. The border combines fine stitched florals with metallic thread accents along the edges. A soft structure keeps the bag flat and easy to slip into a bag or drawer.

Gift Ideas

Sized and styled for daily use, this tefillin bag makes a fitting bar mitzvah gift, marking the start of a young man's practice. It also suits a wedding or engagement gift for someone continuing family tradition, or a thoughtful gift for a father, brother, or friend. The blessing woven across the front gives it lasting meaning beyond the occasion itself.

Care Instructions

Keep the bag dry and away from direct sunlight to preserve the silk and embroidery colors. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth rather than washing, and store flat when not in use.
