Omani jewellery gets it's influence from ancient designs, countries such as India, and from all over the Arab world. Spiked bangles were designed from the acacia spiked thorn tree, common in Oman. A bride would have 10 kilos of silver jewellery from her new husband, which would then be melted at the end of her life, to make jewellery for a new bride. The old silver is highly collectable and quite rare.
The cones are separated by rows of 4 small rounds each, all created by hammering sheet metal/silver into a mold, leaving the inside of the cone hollow.
