kuwait emblem trucker hat

Coat of arms of Kuwait. The emblem of Kuwait (Arabic: شعار الكويت‎) was adopted in 1962 and it consists of the shield of the flag design in colour superimposed on a golden falcon with wings displayed. The falcon supports a disc containing a boom sailing ship, a type of dhow, with the full name of the state written (in Arabic) at the top of the disc. The dhow is a symbol of the maritime tradition of the country and is also found in the national coats of arms of Qatar. The falcon is a symbol of the Banu Quraish line, to which the prophet Muhammad belonged and is likewise found in many coats of arms of the Arabian Peninsula.
