jose. do you like jembiyas ?? i know that you like yemeni art. maybe not the jambiyas ( yemen knifs )
i ll post you soon a collection of yemeni nice items
I do have none, Ait. I have seen some though with gorgeous silver work. In fact I have some Yemeni necklaces where the big pendants I suspect have been inspired by the silver work on scabbards for this kind of knifes.
you are right Jose. there is some coran boxes, kajal silver bottels and some silver boxes that are not as jelels originaly. they are as you mentioned together with the knife, fixed at the belt.
the knives are also decorated with silver.

I like this beautifull set
very nice piece. I never saw this when you were posting and then was looking for another style and found this on line.. I sold a type years ago with all the tubes.. was wondering if these are still available.. I find them so interesting..
