This African Walnut portable Bimah was designed in the style of the contemporary furniture movement. The legs of the torah table are hand-shaped and top is tilted forward and shows off the exquisite carving work and glass inlays on the front representing the seven days of the week (shabbat is represented above). Detail attention demonstrates examples of three styles and textures of carving. The box is constructed to two feet in depth with through dovetail joints. The solid brass Brusso hinges are carefully inlayed. The work can be easily disassembled for transport with two screwdrivers and will stand strong for generations. Made to be affixed with sturdy mahogany/metal wheels with brakes and top tilts up for easy wheeling through standard door.
This Bimah has been custom built according to the needs, style, and budget of our client. It matches nicely any of our two-tone aron kodesh on legs. We will customize the carving work on the back to suit.
