https://spitalfieldslife.com/2023/06/22/leo-epstein-epra-fabrics-i/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Wed, 03 Dec 2025 11:19:42 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 https://spitalfieldslife.com/2023/06/22/leo-epstein-epra-fabrics-i/#comment-1868870 Wed, 03 Dec 2025 11:19:42 +0000 https://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=196188#comment-1868870 I popped in here yesterday. My husband is converting to Judaism, and decided he wants to make his own Tallit. Mr Epstein served me, a little puzzled at first – what was this goyet woman of Irish heritage asking for? He was lovely – fascinating place, a rarity. Mr.Epstein, I’m a ghost writer, and write memoirs (40 life stories in the last ten years) – I think yours deserves to be told, don’t you? Get in touch!

Epra as well as linings for our dress and Jackets.
Always courteous and welcoming ..
So pleased that he is still in the East end . Brick Lane
has kept its identity to this day . Wish Epra many more
years of good business for Leo and his team.

And what a cornucopia of fabrics! How do you keep them all straight, Mr Epstein?
