What souvenirs from Bosnia and Herzegovina are worth buying

Bullet products

Bullet souvenirs are known to be one of the symbols and heritage of Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina. They are created from spent shell casings left over from the Bosnian war in the 90s.

Local craftsmen use them to create a variety of products, including brooches, pendants, key holders, and other jewelry and souvenirs. These products symbolize peace and rebirth after the war and have become popular with tourists.

Unique copper plates can be a memorable gift from Bosnia and Herzegovina. These items have a special charm and symbolize the skill and traditions of local artisans. Purchasing them will be a great way to add a touch of elegance and authenticity to your interior, as well as bring a piece of Balkan beauty to your home.

Hand-knitted slippers

In Bosnia, it is a tradition to take off your shoes before entering the house, symbolizing respect and care for cleanliness. House slippers, available for purchase in stores across the country, come in various styles such as woolen or pointed toes. They feature a variety of patterns, from intricate designs to simple and solid colors, catering to different tastes and preferences.

Jewelry

The art of metalworking in Bosnia is not only evident in household items but also in the creation of jewelry, including necklaces and bracelets, with intricate designs. Bosnian jewelry offers a wide range of elegant and sophisticated pieces available at reasonable prices.

Before making a purchase, it's worth learning about the materials used in the jewelry and the craftsman who created it. We also recommend negotiating with the seller over the price!
