Bedouin Jewelry

Silver collecting has become an act of cultural preservation. There is an urgency to acquiring, cataloging and recording the history and uses of Middle Eastern and Bedouin silver jewelry.

Traditionally, nomadic Bedouins and village families were among the silversmiths best customers. Women in such settings often acquired most of their jewelry through marriage. Part of the dowry, or mahr, given by the groom to the bride's father to confirm the marriage, was used to buy or commission jewelry from the local silversmith. This would be part of what the bride would wear on her wedding day.
