These are some
of the tallitot created by Mertel the Turtle Fabric Arts. Some
are no longer available, (indicated by the absence of a price
on the close-ups), but you may commission similar work.
Please contact us if you are interested in commissioning a tallit
like what you see above - or if you have another idea altogether.
The
tallitot can be made in any size. The standard Bar/Bat Mitzvah
size is
20" X 65" and the Adult size is
40" X 72".
Unless otherwise indicated, those shown in
the above photographs are standard Bar/Bat
Mitzvah
sizes.
All of the
tallitot are made with a slightly raised atarah (the part of
the tallit that drapes around one's neck).
The
tallitot are made of synthetic fabric that has the look and
feel of
silk and come with a matching tallit
bag
and yarmulke.
