The craft of khoos — weaving palm fronds into baskets, mats, and ornaments — is one of Oman's most enduring folk arts, kept alive mostly by the hands of women. This keychain takes that ancient skill and shapes it into a small woven arrow, a charm you can carry every day. Each one is made the traditional way: the frond split, softened, and coiled by hand until the pattern holds. It is a tribute to the palm tree, which has fed, sheltered, and adorned Omani life for millennia. Small and light, it carries the texture of the oasis in your pocket. A folk art you can hold between two fingers.
