Tallis Gadol with Techelet - Prayer Shawl w/Blue Fringes

This is a traditional tallis / tallit gadol, the large prayer shawl worn by Orthodox Jewish men during prayer. This special version comes with an extra twist...

This tallis comes with Techeles Tzitzit, with biblical blue string fringe-knots, according to rediscovered tradition of the Radzyner Rebbe and the rulings of the rabbis of Breslov chassidus (the Murex alternative is available by special request at additional cost).

This product includes tzitzis that are hand woven with the intention of the mitzvah, and are specially thick and specially long. This is a particularly appropriate choice for those who have trouble with tzitzis string breakage and who wish to highlight the blue string mitzvah.

There are multiple ways to tie techeles tzitzis. This product follows the Radzyner (identical to Chabad for white) method for the tie but the traditional Ashkenazi/Sephardi method for attachment (looped around), and is the preferred method of Breslev chassidim. [Other styles available by request, email us!].

The tzitzis (fringe knots) are tied by chassidic Jews in Meah Shearim, Israel, specifically with the intention of the mitzvah.

This garment is certified kosher to the highest orthodox Jewish religious standards by the Badatz Yerushalayim - Eidet Charedit.

The garment is the highest quality top-of-the-line available from Israeli tallit manufacturer Talitaynu.

The blue dye is produced by hand via the process described in the Gemora (Talmud) and rediscovered through generations of research. This intense labor and small industry result in a rather high price for the blue-dyed string to meet the mitzvah requirements of techeles. The blue dye is colorfast and should not run or fade and should last many years (it will bleach out, do not bleach!). While this garment could be washed delicate-care, dry-cleaning only is recommended.
