This nineteenth-century Yemeni tribal artifact presents a traditional Arab Jambiya dagger mounted inside a wooden shadowbox frame. The dagger consists of a curved scabbard and a T-shaped hilt, both encased in white metal decorated with detailed repoussé and chased geometric patterns, and the scabbard finishes in a flared chape. The backing textile displays horizontal woven bands in red, black, and yellow geometric motifs, while the assembly incorporates a dark mat board and a reddish-brown wooden outer frame with stepped mouldings. The outer frame measures 46 cm high by 59 cm wide, and the dagger measures 33 cm long by 16 cm wide. This decorative wall art suits a gentleman's library, study, or hallway, and is designed to hang on a wall above a sideboard or console table to provide a focal point. The display requires no additional hardware for mounting and integrates smoothly into traditional or eclectic interior schemes.

FAQs

A jambiya is a traditional curved dagger worn as a status symbol and cultural accessory by men in Yemen and regions across the Arabian Peninsula.

These items typically feature forged steel blades paired with hilts and scabbards crafted from silver, brass, horn, or wood, decorated using repousse and filigree metalworking techniques.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-hammered detailing, age-appropriate oxidisation within crevices, and traditional geometric or floral motifs distinct to specific regional silversmithing traditions.

Framed daggers and tribal objects serve as focal points when mounted on accent walls, integrated into gallery walls, or displayed above console tables in contemporary or eclectic spaces.

Keep the display frame sealed to minimise exposure to humidity and atmospheric dust, and clean the glass exterior using a dry microfibre cloth rather than liquid sprays.
