 Mazal tov!

Your ketubah is much more than a decoration for your wedding! My ketubot, part of a more than two thousand year old Jewish tradition, offer you the opportunity to grace your new home with an expression of your love for one another, the values and dreams upon which you found your new family, and your spirituality—all glowing with delicate calligraphy and paper cutting, sparkling paint and gold. Each ketubah is carefully crafted to the highest conservation standards, so yours will be an heirloom for your generations to come. And, I can offer you ketubot at many price ranges to fit your budget.

My husband, a psychiatrist, is sure that I’m an alchemist! And yes, there really is some kind of magic that happens between me and each couple. Your ketubah will be more than just a decoration for your wedding day—it will be a proud artwork expressing your lives, throughout your lives. Take a look at this sampling of my recent ketubot…

Learn about my original custom ketubot, my limited edition prints, and (not limited) all-digital print designs below! Please do drop me a note with your questions!

Custom Ketubot

A joy to own (and a joy to create), my custom ketubot grace hundreds of homes across the world. I work closely with each couple via video-chat and e-mail, whether in the US, Israel, Europe, Africa or Australia, to create museum-quality heirloom ketubot embodying their relationship, lives and dreams. Just like the couples who commission them, each ketubah is unique and never duplicated. Each delights the eye and the mind with my attentive and creative fusion of the couple’s lives and interests with Jewish spirituality and learning—and exquisite calligraphy, paper-cutting and painting. In fact, I accompany each Ketubah with an attractive write-up laying out the symbolism within it, so you can share the ideas with your guests—and later on, all your generations. Visit the gallery of my custom ketubot by clicking on the button below; when you hover over the gallery images you will find the essence of each of these ketubot’s write-ups.

I also create original custom presentation artwork other than ketubot. If you are interested in commissioning artwork to honor an annivesary or organizational landmark, please contact me directly.

Price? You will not find prices attached to these images, however, like the slide-show above, the gallery includes ketubot at many different price levels. Click here to learn about pricing and other common questions.

 Limited Edition Ketubot

I offer several limited edition ketubot. Each is digitally printed (gicle) on the same high-quality, acid-free papers that I often use for my custom ketubot, most highlighted with gold color or leaf that I apply by hand. When you order the print from me, I fill your particulars into the text by hand, and ship it to you wrapped carefully in a sturdy tube. Just as with the custom ketubot, you will receive a write-up describing the symbolism in the design. While you will also find these designs from several on-line dealers, it would be my pleasure to work directly with you.

Please click on the images to expand them; and hover over it to read the write-up I have prepared to describe the meaning and symbolism in each design. Please click here for information about text versions, edition-size and pricing.

All-Digital Ketubot 

I offer a variety of all-digital ketubot available through Ketubah.com. These are reproduced from designs I have provided, without limit, entirely electronically, involving none of the by-hand fill-in or detailing present in my limited edition prints. Consequently the cost of these digital prints is significantly lower than either custom art or limited edition prints. Please click here to view my designs on Ketubah.com.
