The main value of this Collection is that it is so comprehensive

The Saad Al-Jadir Collection is unrivalled in its range and quality. It is the first and largest, as well as being the only comprehensive collection of works created by Muslim and other silversmiths.

Islamic art is, and has always been, the medium par excellence by which Muslim peoples have expressed the richness of their vast and unique civilization. The craft of the silversmith represents an essential element of this compound medium.
