The Siwans used to wear some beautiful silver jewellery such as the kind displayed in the Siwa House. Some good reproductions are available at the shops in Siwa Town and if you are fond of jewellery, then they make a good buy.
Beautifully embroidered shawls in blue are very distinctive of the Siwan craft and are available at LE 250 onwards.
Siwa abounds in palm trees and the date-palm fronds are used extensively to weave baskets, plates, mats and other items. Baskets woven from date palm fronds with lids are used by Siwans to distribute sweets on Eid. Also, plates in various sizes with red leather centres are available and can be used to serve bread, sweets etc.
Siwa is known for its dates and olives. At the foot of Fortress of Shali, there is a shop that sells olive products. Try their Olive dressing and Tomato dressing –they are delicious and can be easily used as salad dressing. Many brands of dates are available but I believe that the Jawhra brand is the best. Dates are also available in the pulp form with the seeds removed which can be easily used to make chutneys-in India, a sweet chutney made from dates, tamarind and jaggery is extremely popular.

Where is SIWA?Where are these stores?Love jewellery..do give details
Siwa is an oasis in the Western Desert in Egypt. A peaceful, laid-back place. Siwan women have traditionally been very fond of jewellery. You can find some nice silver jewellery in the shops in Siwa town. In Cairo, you can try the Nomad shop in Zamalek
