Fujairah flag (1952 - 1961) 35 x 54" vintage

Regional flag of the emirate of Fujairah, salvaged from an oceangoing ship.  The Fujairah flag would have been a vessel's "flag of convenience" or "courtesy flag" and was flown by a vessel which actually called (visited) a port in Fujairah, so it has been to the "homeland"! 

Natural material.  Screened.  Light patina, light soil, light wear.  Smells like a ship.

Approximately 35" x 54".

The flag of the capital of the emirate of Fujairah (in the United Arab Emirates) consists of a plain red field with the Arabic name of the emirate in white in the center.  Used from 1952-1961.  Replaced in 1975 with the current UAE national flag.
