Omani Khanjar Silver Dagger — Cover

About Omani Khanjar Silver Dagger

The khanjar — Oman's J-curved silver dagger — is the one national symbol that every citizen wears at the waist on formal occasions. It appears on the flag, the currency, and the coat of arms. This design system translates the silversmith's bench into interface language: polished-silver filigree hairlines on deep indigo display cloth, royal red call-to-action echoing the Saidi belt, and inscriptive serif type that recalls verses chased into a scabbard.

Every surface is the indigo cloth the dagger rests on; every border is a silver hairline; every ornament references the seven-ring scabbard count. The result is unmistakably Omani — formal, lustrous, and grounded in craft rather than corporate luxury.
