Black and Burgundy

I took a little break from custom work and did something I have had in mind for a while. I started by embroidering a tallit blessing in dark cherry red on black dupioni silk. I then edged the atarah with a burgundy dupioni that's a little darker than the embroidery but harmonizes well. I selected an ivory dupioni silk for the background and added two stripes of black and burgundy at each end of the tallit. The result is striking. I have never seen a tallit quite like this before. I liked it so much that I started wearing it myself and made another one for the shop.

Size: 19 x 74 inches.
