Traditional silver craftsmanship - A fusion of art and culture

Silver craftsmanship in Oman has a long-standing tradition, deeply rooted in the country’s culture and history. Omani silverwork is particularly renowned for its intricate craftsmanship and detailed embellishments. Among the most famous pieces are the traditional silver daggers, known as “Khanjars,” which are worn by men on special occasions. These daggers are adorned with elaborate engravings and patterns, often passed down through generations.  

In addition to silver daggers, jewelry such as necklaces, bracelets, and earrings is also a significant part of Omani craftsmanship. Silversmiths use various techniques, including engraving, casting, and stamping, to create unique pieces. Silver in Oman holds not only aesthetic value but also plays an important role in rituals and social traditions.
