My legacy marks falconry and Emirati Women's Day with special collections
The Heritage Council for Contemporary Crafts unveiled two exclusive collections at the Abu Dhabi International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition 2026. This initiative aims to highlight Emirati crafts linked to the cultural heritage of falconry and Emirati Women's Day. The "Al-Thaya: Issuance of the Shaheen" collection draws inspiration from the world of falconry, symbolizing Emirati values such as authenticity, patience, and skill. It incorporates elements of the traditional Sufifa craft using natural leather materials. The second collection, created in collaboration with jewelry designer Adi Al-Fardan, pays tribute to the Emirati women's craft of Sufifa. Presented in a contemporary context with jewelry made from gold and precious stones, it is launched as a limited edition for one month in celebration of Emirati Women's Day. Additionally, the pavilion hosted interactive workshops to introduce visitors to Emirati traditional crafts and their modern development, highlighting the Council’s efforts to preserve and enhance this heritage through contemporary designs.
