Judaica Designer Devorah Michael, LLC Announces Retail Partnerships

NEW YORK, March 5, 2020 (Newswire.com) - ​​New York City-based Devorah Michael, LLC is a designer and distributor of high-quality, unique, Mexican Judaica products. Its designs and products include the first-ever line of Mezuzahs made in the Mexican and Spanish Talavera pottery tradition, a tradition which was recently named an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. The company also designs and distributes Jewish-themed jewelry made in 100 percent Mexican silver.

“We are extremely excited to partner with two very well-respected and prestigious organizations: The Center for Jewish History and The American Sephardi Federation,” said Deborah Koenigsberger Gutierrez, co-founder and Chief Designer of Devorah Michael, LLC.

Jews have been a vibrant and important community within Mexico for centuries. The company’s products seek to recognize and merge the time-honored traditions of Judaism with the beauty and uniqueness of local Mexican artisanship.

“Oftentimes, I find people challenging my roots,” says Deborah Koenigsberger Gutierrez. “In the eyes of some, I can't be both Mexican AND Jewish. I can only be one or the other. In creating, these products, Mexican and Jewish, not only am I reaffirming my identity, but also introducing the world to unique artisan Judaica which highlights a blend of two beautiful cultures.”

Devorah Michael, LLC's products can be found on its website, at The Center for Jewish History, and at the Online Shop of the American Sephardi Federation.
