  1. Ohh beautiful! Before you wrote Oman I was gonna say Oman, just by looking at the fab cap they wear. I got one for my father on my last trip Muscat. and he loved it!

  2. Yup, the caps the Omanis wear are really superb - I like them over the guthra and egal.

    The colours and designs in them are stunning.

    I've yet to find out if there's any tribal significance between the different colours and designs.
