Commissioned by Synagogues and museums throughout the country, Torah Covers by Corinne Strauss are highly prized for their beauty, originality, and spirituality. Hand-painted on tapestry-weight silk, the carefully chosen colors range from the softest earth hues to vibrant jewel tones. Each cover, while respecting the sanctity of the Torah, reflects the individuality of the congregation embodying traditional or contemporary motifs.

"A Torah mantle for each season ... and a special one for Yom Hashoah and Yom Haatzmaut, have graced our Synagogue since we met Corinne. A silk Chuppah also fills our sanctuary with life and color."
