Silver Features

Mersal:
Back in the days when Kings and Emperors sent envoys across the Arabian deserts to communicate with one another, the letter was sealed in a "Mersal". This solid, tube-like package protected the message along the rugged voyage. The "Mersal" was often a measure of the King or Emperor’s wealth.

This hand crafted silver Mersal can safe-guard a birth certificate, marriage contract or any other document that's close to your heart. To personalize this Mersal you can have a special name or message engaged on the flat front.
$218.00

Mersal Pendant & Chain


These small replicas of the "Mersal" are delicately hand crafted by Syrian jewelers. The pendants are hollow inside and can be opened. Upon request, I can hand write a special message (or name) in Arabic calligraphy, for safekeeping inside your pendant.
