The Raw Chestnut No. 18 Ketubah
$290.00
The artwork created by Mark Rothko in the late 1940's didn't lack in defined shape or size. This was something that deviated from the norm at that time, and redefined larger art pieces as something more personal, rather than arrogant or “pompous and grandiose”. Rothko stated “The reason I painted them, however… is precisely because I want to be very intimate and human”.
The Raw Chestnut No. 18 exhibits a warm, brown color palette with a simple shape. Inspired by Rothko's though provoking designs and the warmth and comfort of home, this bold Ketubah adds an intimate and modern touch to any room.

The Jazzberry Jam No. 18 Ketubah
$290.00
In 1936 Mark Rothko began writing a piece comparing the similarities between the work of modern painters and the art created by children. Rothko felt that “child art transforms itself into primitivism”. It was these writings that expressed Rothko's shift into abstract art and the beautiful works of art he would later create. A collection of abstract pieces that are the essence of artistic thought and modern art.
Although his book was never finished, Rothko drew the conclusion that the ability to artistically draw is already advanced, that in reality, “we start with color”. The Jazzberry Jam No. 18 is inspired by Rothko's pieces — bringing beautiful design and Ketubot art back to basics. Although completely simple and minimal, this gorgeous Ketubah is the perfect blend of a unique tradition and bold contemporary design.

The 72 Stones Ketubah
$290.00
72 Stones is a modern homage to the Western Wall. This is a Ketubah that combines the power and mystery of our ancient Jewish homeland with the magic of numbers: There are precisely 72 stones in this Ketubah, which is not only a multiple of our special number 18, but building on the artistic style and nomenclature of Mark Rothko (née Rothkowitz).
The 72 Stones Ketubah is perfect for the couple for whom the symbolism of the Western Wall appeals to their inner-most connection with Judaism — yet who still feel inspired by the less-literal interpretations of the universe of modern art. 72 Stones is a Rothko-inspired Ketubah, but it makes Rothko more intimate by clearly connecting him with our Jerusalem stone.

The Wisteria No. 18 Ketubah
$290.00
By the mid 1950s, Mark Rothko began to utilize more darker tones and shades in his paintings. Although his collection was met with developing fame and success, Rothko desired that his paintings were adored and purchased for something more than just an artistic fad. Rothko stated that color is “merely an instrument”, that the contrast of similar shades and the way they work with structure are meant to inspire something more than just a beautiful design.
It's not only Rothko's signature style that constitutes as a beautiful inspiration for a Ketubah design, but also his emotional process and method behind his art. The Wisteria No. 18 Ketubah exhibits bold purple shades and evokes depth and meaning — the perfect centerpiece for your home and life together.

The Blue No. 18 Ketubah is a great Ketubah for a couple that loves each other, wants inspiration from a Jewish artist — and who, of course, loves the hipster, painted style that Rothko pioneered. This Ketubah looks especially great in modernist apartments!

The No.36 Orange & Purple Ketubah
$290.00
A Jewish-émigré to the United States fleeing the oppression of tsarist Russia, Mark Rothko was among the earliest avant-garde of abstract expressionism, as much as he disliked this label. Inspired by the intimate connection between painter and spectator, Rothko’s ‘multiform’ works intentionally illicit the range of human emotions.
The No. 36 Orange & Purple Ketubah captures the depth of feeling as if the painter had sketched it himself. The warm orange, yellow, and red hues are carefully balanced by the plum inset recalling the ecstasy, joy, and love of lifelong relationships. We love this Ketubah because it represents everything a meaningful partnership should be—and we’d love it on our wall!
