About
Dahab is gold, in the Judeo-Arabic spoken in both of our families' old homes, in Morocco and in Baghdad. Two families became one, and with them two ways of giving gold.
In the Moroccan house: the hamsa over the door and on a chain, the eight-point star cut into every tiled courtyard, the openwork of Fez, the gold coins strung across a bride at the henna. In the Iraqi house: heavy gold, bangles that come in pairs, the bride's gold counted and kept. We grew up with both, and so does this shop.
We work in gold only, 18k yellow unless you ask for 14k. A child's first letter, a name in Hebrew, a chai, a mezuzah to wear, earrings for a girl and for her mother. Gold for the milestones, made to be handed down.
