Description: Thouma style Jambiya were worn only by the most senior members of a community such as Sayyid (descendents of the Prophet) scholors and judges (Ulama). Unlike the Assib style Jambiya, which is worn vertically in front, the Thouma is worn on the right side at a 45 degree angle. This example includes the original wide brocade belt and Hirz containers. The hilt is horn decorated with red corals and silver fittings. Overall: 15" Blade 9". For similar examples see Gracie, Stephen. Jambiya : Daggers from the Ancient Souqs of Yemen (Australia, 2010), pp. 120-122.
