Bahrain's centuries-old tradition of sword and dagger craftsmanship took centre stage at one of the world's most iconic museums this week, as the Kingdom unveiled a cultural exhibition at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, spotlighting its rich artisanal heritage before a global audience.
Hosted on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) 2025, the exhibition titled 'From Bahrain's Heritage: The Art of Sword and Dagger Making' presented intricately handcrafted Bahraini blades by Depaj Factory, a showcase of heritage deeply rooted in symbolism, strength, and identity.
