“From the Post” is a weekly cultural event that aims to highlight some of the many layers of the historic capital city of Manama starting from the Post Office Museum which was once housed the Manama Post Office during the 1940s.

Week 4 - Gold and Bahraini Pearls

Manama's essence was once woven into tales of trade and craftsmanship. This week, we delve into the imports and evolution of jewelry, tracing its roots from the prominence of the Pearl Trade, the influx of precious stones, to the contemporary Bahraini gold craftsmanship that is now distinctively recognized internationally. We explore how these practices shape our connection to local jewelry.
