When it comes to art galleries, the Barakat Gallery makes its prominence felt in many parts of the world. The Abu Dhabi branch of this gallery is famous for being home to an extensive collection of ancient coins and jewellery among many other things. The best part about these collectibles is that all of them are in good condition even though they date back to the previous millennium. Being a brand that is more than 100 years old, the Barakat Gallery has specialised in some of the finest specimens of ancient art over the past five generations that the brand has passed on through. The gallery is even home to unique things like 12th-century Syrian oil lamps and centuries-old ornate Greek flasks. Everything in this museum is for sale and is exorbitantly priced, as per its value. The Barakat Gallery was originally founded in Jerusalem and now has branches in different places of the world, including London and Beverly Hills.
