One of the meanings of Jewish life that I love the most is the tradition of making special even everyday, ordinary activities and gestures, such as waking, praying, eating. Not to mention the rituals of every commanded festivity - the most important of all Shabbat with Havdallah occurring every week - and events in the cycle of our lives, birth, bar/bat mitzvah, wedding. For each celebration, whether in our private home or with the community, we use objects, clothing accessories or tableware that, from the earliest times, have distinguished a person, family or synagogue with its own style.
This is Judaica: a world of artefacts, embroidered textiles, cast metals or hand-painted ceramics and glassware. Basically, millennia of creativity from Jews in every corner of the planet that inspires me, blending my love for Judaism and the passion for hand-crafting, my devotion to tradition and the vision of a new perspective. Lior
As an Italian Jew, LiOr would like to contribute, through her design and craftmanship, to the artistic heritage of Judaica in the world today. Also, but not only, by addressing Italian Progressive Jews, by birth or choice. Typically the models of tallit offered by liordesigns.com come with tsitsit, exclusively kosher, tied by LiOr herself. Being aware of the significance and respectful of the sacredness of the task, she derives great joy in performing the tying, in choosing the appropriate kind of tsitsit and the way to make chulyot to best suit our client. If you have a strictier orthodox practice, feel free to choose your favourite tallit from the showcase, onto which you can have the tsitsiot attached later.
In this window LiOr presents her interpretation of Judaica, ready-to-buy items or custom-made for you, for yourself or as a gift idea for a simcha.
