Handmade Wood Judaica With
a twenty-six year tradition of craftsmanship and talent, Sky West Wood
Inlay offers this handcrafted line of wood and semi-precious stone
inlay Judaica. Something special happens when contrasting woods mix with semi-precious
stones, to form beautiful, scenic, and symbolic works of art. The large and
small hinged boxes are made from American Walnut and feature felt inside the
bottom and lid, both signed by the artist, Charles Fleckenstein. Mezuzahs are
solid wood with so much intricate detail that animals seem to come to life and
night scenes actually feature the moon against a darkened, starlit sky. This
is accomplished through the use of carefully selected and hand cut inlay woods
such as black ziricote, red tulipwood, white olive, purple kingwood, deep red
cocobolo, and cordia.
All of Sky West’s pieces are made in Albuquerque, New Mexico, from domestic
and exotic woods. They are proud to support the National Arbor Foundation, an
organization that helps protect the world’s forests. All Sky West gifts
are shipped with information cards with descriptions and care instructions.
