Salaams A.alnakkas]~ Regret I dont know any Habaabi silver smiths as this will be a complete strip down and rebuild...in the Habaabi style. As you point out it needs a new wooden inner then rewinding with silver wire and re application of the rings...May be cheaper to fly down to Habaabi ... best of luck with this...
