We recommend that you read our Policy page and the About STAM page before placing an order.

Each pair of tefillin is assembled from the highest quality batim, parshios and retzuos. Everything is made and done according to strict halachic code and is guaranteed to be kosher. For a comprehensive introduction to tefillin please go to What is Tefillin. In addition, the Expense of STaM page is a must!

Each sofer, who we know personally, is certified and experienced. Each pair of parshios is painstakingly examined by 2 certified examiners and is checked for textual errors by computer. The gasos batim and retzuos (hand made only) are made under independent rabbinical supervision.

Special Orders:
Please contact us if you are interested in tefillin according to the Arizal (Chassidic custom), the Alter Rebbi, (Lubavitch custom) or Rabbeinu Tam tefillin. We have noted in the catalog where the Arizal writing is available by special order.

You can also order "miniature" tefillin, both Ashkenaz and Sephardi, for those who travel or want to wear both Rashi and Rabbeinu Tam at the same time. Please contact us for details.

If you want the parshios written on special, hand made klaf or want any other hiddur in the writing please contact us. We have noted in the catalog where parshios on special klaf are available by special order.

In addition, if you want a particular hiddur in the batim or want to clarify which hiddurim are in the batim we offer with our advertised tefillin please contact us. "Mikshah achas" batim are also available.
