SEPHARDIC TORAH COVERS
Sephardic torah cases provide a unique tradition of beauty and protection to torah scrolls. They are most often found in Sephardic synagogues, but are sometime found in Ashkenazi temples too.
The torah cases are often beautiful works of art in wood and silver. For the high holidays, when the other torah covers are changed for their white seasonal covers, these Sephardic cases remain the same.
Now, for the first time anywhere, CustomJudaica is offering a way to dress and unify these hard cases. Precise measurements are made of the hard cases, and a custom white “slipcover” is made for the use during the high holidays. It is easily put on and off, and can add further specialness to the holiday season.
