Selected Works
From the Beit Shemesh studio
A glimpse into pieces recently completed — parchment art, illuminated megillot and STa"M work commissioned by clients across Israel.
From the studio of Yossi Novack in Beit Shemesh — bespoke Judaica commissioned by families, collectors and communities across Israel. Torah scrolls, mezuzot, Megillot Esther, and hand-painted Eshet Chayil on klaf. Shipped nationwide.
Every scroll, mezuzah and painted parchment passes through four intentional stages — from your first inquiry to a finished heirloom in your hands.
We speak personally. You choose the piece, the ktav (Arizal or Beit Yosef), size, and any dedication or illustration.
Only certified kosher parchment and ink are prepared. Every material is inspected before a single letter is drawn.
Yossi writes each letter with sanctity and precision. Painted works are illustrated by hand on the klaf itself.
A qualified magiah reviews the work. Then it's packaged with care and shipped anywhere in Israel — with certification.
Four disciplines, one hand. Each piece is written or painted to order — no templates, no shortcuts, no compromises on kashrut.
A full Sefer Torah is the most sacred commission a sofer undertakes. Written over months on premium klaf, in your chosen ktav — Ari or Beit Yosef — with strict adherence to halacha. Ideal for synagogue dedications, family commissions and memorial projects.
Handwritten mezuzot on kosher klaf, checked and certified. Available in every standard size for entrances, bedrooms and gates. Ordered individually or in full sets for a new home — a common request from families relocating within Israel.
Beautifully written Megillot for Purim reading, and one-of-a-kind painted Megillot Esther where every panel is illustrated by hand on the parchment. A collector's piece that reads for the mitzvah and displays as fine art.
Hand-painted Eshet Chayil, birkat habayit, personal verses and family dedications on genuine klaf. Custom dimensions, custom illustration, custom lettering — designed for wedding gifts, anniversary presents and heirloom pieces for the home.

Judaica VeStam was founded in Beit Shemesh by Yossi Novack, an experienced sofer STa"M who has devoted his career to the sacred discipline of Hebrew scribal art. Every letter he writes carries the intention behind it — because a mezuzah, a megillah, or a Sefer Torah is only truly kosher when it is written by a Jew who fears Heaven, with the right intention, on parchment that meets every halachic requirement.
Beyond the strict scribal work, Yossi combines his years of experience with hand-painting on klaf — creating illustrated Megillot Esther, Eshet Chayil for the home, and personalized parchment art in the exact dimensions you request. The studio is based in Beit Shemesh, but pieces are commissioned by families and collectors from Jerusalem to the Galilee, and shipped to every corner of Israel.
Every piece of STa"M is checked by a qualified magiah and shipped with a certificate.
No stock. Your specifications — ktav, size, illustration, dedication — drive every piece.
Illustrated megillot and parchment art you won't find at a standard Judaica store.

Every piece of STa"M is written by an experienced, God-fearing sofer on kosher parchment (klaf) with kosher ink, and is checked by a qualified magiah. A certificate of kashrut is provided with each commission.
A mezuzah is typically ready within days. A hand-painted Megillat Esther takes several weeks to a few months depending on illustration complexity. A full Sefer Torah is a longer commissioned project — timelines are discussed personally at the start.
Absolutely. Dedications, family names, wedding blessings and personal verses can be integrated into the artwork on the parchment — a treasured heirloom gift for any lifecycle occasion.
Whether it's a single mezuzah, a painted Megillat Esther, or a full Sefer Torah — every commission begins with a personal conversation. Reach out and Yossi will guide you through the options, the timeline, and the cost.
