Selling paintings in Fujairah
Fujairah is the only emirate on the Gulf of Oman rather than the Arabian Gulf, and its harbour is one of the largest ship-refuelling ports in the world. That gives it a working maritime population alongside a small resident one, and the mountains and diving sites on this coast mean outdoor and water gear circulates here in a way it does not inland.
Port and shipping work runs on rotation, so people arrive for a contract and go when it finishes. That produces a steady supply of nearly-new household goods bought at the start of a posting and sold at the end of it, still well within their working life.
The city is compact and strung along the coast road, so meeting near the corniche or a known landmark on that road is simpler than exchanging addresses. Anything sofa-sized needs a pickup, which is easy enough to arrange here and worth agreeing before the price rather than after.
Fujairah has around 100,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Dibba Al-Fujairah, Dubai and Sharjah are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What paintings are worth
What lifts the price
- Original frames appropriate to the period
- Canvases with no tears, flaking or overpainting
What pulls it down
- Water staining and foxing on works on paper
- Unsigned works with no attribution
Working out what yours is worth
- Photograph the signature, the back and any labels
- Search auction results for the artist’s name
Getting it ready
- Look for a signature and any date, including in the corners and along the edges under the frame rebate.
- Do not clean, varnish, retouch or reframe. Amateur cleaning removes glazes permanently and is the most common way value is destroyed.
Photograph
- The painting square on, whole, in even daylight without glare or reflection
- The complete reverse, including stretcher, labels and any inscription
Put in the description
- Medium and support — oil on canvas, watercolour on paper, acrylic on board
- The signature as it appears, and any date or inscription
Steady year round to a collector and decorator audience. Signed work by identifiable artists sells fastest; unattributed decorative paintings compete on subject, size and frame.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
