Purim

The Purim story is told in the Book of Esther (Megilat Esther).  Part of the Purim festivities include reading the Book of Esther, both in the evening and in the morning prayers, and making lots of noise when the name of Haman is called out.  It can be seen as the children’s holiday, as kids and adults alike are encouraged to make lots of noise.

Many synagogues and families own their own scrolls ( megilot).  The scrolls are made from parchment, and written by a  scribe (sofer stam).  They come in a wide variety of sizes, from small to large.  They are generally rolled up and placed  in a case to protect them.

Here you will find megilah cases to hold the parchment scroll from wood- all custom made especially for your scroll.  Etz-Ron makes a wide variety of cases, some with handles, some accented w/ silver, some  accented w/ Etz-Ron’s signature mosaics.  They are appropriate to house scrolls  for the home,  synagogue or temple, and can be personalized.

You will also find noise makers, (groggers), in this gallery.  Etz-Ron Purim groggers have a reputation for being loud.  These groggers take their job of drowning out the name of Haman seriously, and they are beautiful as well.
