Description
This fun soft enamel magnet can be used as decoration and to display photos, art and travel mementos. The design features a falcon on a wakir (perching place in Arabic), and has United Arab Emirates to the bottom.
The falcon is the national bird of the UAE. For 4,000 years resource-scare Bedouin in the Gulf practiced falconry as an important form of hunting. Today it is one of the UAE’s most honoured traditional sports showcasing Arab values of courage, honour and nobility, as well as it’s links to nature conservation and respect for animals.
