The Tabiz

A wearable vessel for the intangible. A private sanctuary of safety kept close to the skin.

The Tabiz is a hollow capsule that functions as a wearable vessel for the intangible. Available in the bustling markets, this small metallic cylinder is designed to store healing, protection, or a specific intent. It acts as a physical archive for a personalized message, perhaps a prayer inscribed by a priest, a remedy from a healer, or a quiet blessing written by a mother or oneself. Often worn around the neck or arm, the Tabiz transforms a mass-produced object into a private sanctuary of safety, keeping one's resolve or faith in constant contact with the skin.
