14. Sadu Weaving

0150900014

Sadu Weaving: an ancient weaving craft practiced by Bedouin women. Sadu is a kind

of traditional hand woven textiles used to make house of hair (Bedouin tent), horses'

saddles or decorative accessories. Wool of camels, goats or sheep besides some

natural colours and a loom are what needed in such a craft.

The craft is still endangered. Yet, Sadu House Society, a museum and souvenir's

shop located in Gulf Road, employ old women {Bedouins) who weave Sadu in the

many different activities throughout the year. In addition, the Sadu House aims to

teach and train those interested in such a craft; either school students or visitors, and

it conducts competitions for the best sadu design.
