Bin Matar House, built in 1905 by pearl merchant, businessman and philanthropist Salman bin Hussain bin Salman bin Matar, built by Bahraini master builder Mussa bin Hamad, and constructed traditionally using palm tree trunks, sea-stone and gypsum, in Muharraq, Bahrain. Salman also helped form the Natural Pearl Protection Society in 1936. The building was saved from demolition and restored as part of the Sheik Ebrahim Center, to house a pearling museum and art gallery. Picture by Manuel Cohen
