MISBAHA TRADERS

Whether you are an expert or a novice, Takieddine warns that technology today can quite accurately emulate just about any kind of material and buyers do not have access to any labs that could verify the misbaha as authentic. “That is one of the lessons I have learned the hard way; yet I was fortunate to have met two of Lebanon’s most reputable traders whom I trust and highly recommend. Walid Nader operates out of Hamra and Toufic Abdul Wahad has a store in Achrafieh. If you do not find what you are looking for then I am fairly certain they can acquire it for you,” says Takieddine.
