United Arab Emirates – Scott # 307, used

Description

Issued in 1990, United Arab Emirates Scott #307 is a high-denomination wildlife definitive stamp depicting a falcon, one of the most iconic and culturally significant birds in Emirati heritage. Falconry has long been practiced in the UAE and symbolizes honor, strength, and the deep bond between humans and nature in the Arabian Peninsula.

The design shows the falcon perched on a traditional falconry stand, rendered in a naturalistic style that highlights the bird’s sharp eyes, speckled plumage, and powerful stance. The soft green background creates a calm, balanced composition, allowing the falcon to remain the clear focal point of the design.

Arabic and English inscriptions identify the issuing country, while the 250-fils denomination places the stamp among the higher-value definitives used for heavier domestic and international mail during the period.

This example is offered used, with a visible cancellation, intact perforations, and strong color. A desirable issue for collectors of Middle Eastern wildlife, birds of prey, and UAE definitive stamps.
