Mechitzahs with Book Shelves
The Tapered mechitzah was originally designed for the Great Neck Synagogue in New York from solid cherry wood. The bottom houses space for books on two shelves, the middle shelf with a lip on the front. You can choose from a variety of woods and finishes. The top section can be framed with transparent glass or one way mirror on a slant, as well as fabric and other options of various prices. At Bass Synagogue Furniture we design and produce each mechitzah to suit the style, size and budget of your synagogue space.

Customize Your Mechitzah
A well designed mechitza will give a good view and feeling of access for the women. While at the same time, the mechitza must conform to some level of modesty from the men’s side, which will vary from congregation to congregation. Bass Synagogue Furniture builds custom mechitzas to suit the needs, style, and budget of our clients. Each project is designed in detailed renderings according to the specifications of our clients before it is produced. Our mechitza designs include a base of woodwork to either three feet, sitting, or four feet, standing and then a top semi-transparent material. We have found the most popular choices to be clear glass, one-way mirror, graphic printing, curtains, and laser cut wood, and sandblasted glass. We can also provide woodwork, carving, metalwork, stained glass, and pretty much whatever you can think of.
