Every now and then...something quite startling appears in the souk... In this case 4 coffee pots that have not seen the light of day for a half a century...exquisite and incredibly rare Omani Coffee pots like these were once common here...and they just joined my private collection. You will recall that as a weapon of assassination how important the coffee pot was for poisoning !!
 Coffee anyone? Last edited by Ibrahiim al Balooshi; 15th May 2014 at 05:28 PM. |

Dear Ibrahim,
Is it possible to buy and to bring back a kattara from your country? Is it allowed by the custom? Thanks Kubur ( we plan to visit the country next year) |

Muttrah in front of the Souk in the not so distant past...Pre 1970...and now..and at #1 the new corniche; an elevated dual carriageway which sweeps along what was the beach.

The Omani Coffee Pot.
I would not normally raise an eyebrow at coffee pots however the 3 items below are simply straight out of the Arc... thus ;
