About

In 1952, Shaul Cohen opened a diminutive carpentry shop in Jerusalem’s Machane Yehuda Shuk, hanging a small sign bearing only the modest inscription S. Cohen. Fifteen years ago, the quaint workshop was reestablished as Emesh Premium Carpentry, a state-of-the-art carpentry factory that stretches across an area of 2,400 sq. meters and perpetuates a 70-year legacy of transforming dreams of wood into breathtaking artwork.
The secrets of Shaul’s talents and skills were relayed to his son Moshe Cohen who expanded his father’s quaint workshop into the internationally-acclaimed company that it is today. The younger Cohen preserves his father’s longtime traditions of meticulous craftsmanship and courteous service while adapting the company to meet the needs of contemporary clientele. Every week, dozens of breathtaking creations leave the factory and are installed in upscale architectural and interior design projects in Israel and around the world.
Emesh Premium Carpentry specializes in designing and manufacturing ornamental furniture for synagogues and exclusive projects that adhere to the highest international architectural and quality standards of production. Culling from the wealth of knowledge and experience amassed by our talented teams of designers and carpenters along with state-of-the-art technology, Emesh Carpentry skillfully transforms any design into a premium piece of furniture, exactly to the client’s specifications.
