What Is a Handmade Atarah?
An atarah is the decorative neckband at the top of a tallit. It helps identify the front of the prayer shawl and gives the tallit its visual character.
Woven with Meaning
At Weaving Creation, each handmade atarah is woven in Jerusalem with carefully chosen colors, textures and patterns. The design can reflect family heritage, a meaningful color palette or a personal connection to Jewish tradition.
Choosing an Atarah
You can choose a classic design, coordinate the atarah with the tallit stripes or create a custom combination with matching corners and embroidery.
