Description
This stamp celebrates traditional craftsmanship through “Silver Jewelry”, pillars of intangible heritage and Tunisian feminine aesthetics. The visual highlights a richly carved fibula (khallala), an emblematic accessory historically used to drape traditional costumes, alongside a female silhouette adorned with Berber jewelry. By promoting this ancestral know-how of goldsmithing, Tunisia underlines the sustainability of its regional craftsmanship and the cultural importance of jewelry as a marker of identity, symbolic protection and social prestige within society.
