Ali Al-Arbash and Sons Company has been in the Kuwaiti jewelry market for more than 70 years. From humble beginnings in pearl trading, Ali Al-Arbash and sons grew to become one of the pioneers in the Kuwaiti jewelry business.

It started back in the 1930’s in Souk Al-Dakheli, one of the main markets of old Kuwait, in a small jewelry shop called Ali Al-Arbash and sons Jewelry. From this small shop, Ali Al-Arbash, the father, traded in pearls along with his sons; Mohammed Ali (Abu AbdulKareem), AbdulRasool (Abu AbdulRedha), and AbdulNabi (Abu Faisal).

By 1947 the once small Al-Arbash Pearl shop began to sell gold items as well. Some of the pieces were embellished with small pearls to give them a more unique appeal.

The early 1960’s made traveling abroad much easier from Kuwait. Thus, in, 1961 Ali Al-Arbash and sons seized the opportunity and began importing jewelry from India. The Indian designs were intriguing, garnished with a variety of precious stones and diamonds. Ali-Alarbash and sons succeeded in being one of the first to trade in such quality items in the Kuwaiti market place. Soon after, Ali Al-Arbash family suffered the passing of their father, now leaving the future of the business in the hands of the three sons.

In 1965, following the same insight and determination as their father, the brothers sought, again, to expand the business. They began importing Italian and a variety of other European jewelry designs to sell along side the already popular Indian designs and their original gold items. The variety of designs became so popular that by the end of the 1960’s the brothers were obligated to move to a bigger store to keep up with increasing demand.

The late 1970’s began a shift away from the plane gold pieces as the brothers focused more on the unique jewelry designs. The jewelry the brothers imported into the Kuwaiti market became so successful that, by the early 1980’s, Ali Al-Arbash and Sons shifted it’s focus strictly to these unique jewelry pieces.

In 1981 Ali Al-Arbash and Sons changed their name and became Mohammed Ali Al-Arbash & Brothers Company. They now began diversifying their business with real estate ventures in Kuwait and abroad.

In 1987 the Al-Arbash family suffered another loss when the oldest brother, Mohammed Ali, passed away. Now the business’ future lay in the hands of the two brothers, AbdulRasool and AbdulNabi. Then again, in 1998, the name of the business changed once more to AbdulRasool & AbdulNabi Al-Arbash Company.

In 1999 the two brothers; AbdulRasool and AbdulNabi, decided to reintroduce their father’s name back into the market place, just as it had been 50 years ago. Once again, the family business is known as Ali Al-Arbash Sons Jewelry.

Just as, 70 years ago, Ali taught his sons the business, his two sons are now teaching their sons. They tell them that through honest work and trust, our family business will continue to thrive, continue to inspire the Kuwaiti jewelry market, and continue to pass down their tradition of honesty and trust to future generations.

Today, most of our customers have been with us through the generations. That’s not just because of our variety of quality items, but because they know they can trust us, and rely on our pioneering experience, to help them find exactly what they need.
