House of Cultures Magnet - Pearl Chest

Attention all fridge magnet collectors! We have a cool looking magnet honouring Qatar’s pearl diving history. Before the oil and gas boom, which saw Qatar catapulted to the status of one of the richest countries in the world, the country’s economy was primarily dependent on pearl trading. The imagery on the magnet depicts a pearl trader’s chest and accessories such as a scale, which were used for trading. Back in the day, these traders were the most prominent businessmen in Qatar and the wider region. Let this magnet act as a little reminder of Qatar’s days gone by the next time you glance at it decorating your fridge. Designed in Qatar and made in China Weight: 40g Dimensions: 14cm x 10cm (with cover) Material: Soft PVC Care instructions: Do not wash
