Smoothing Leather in Essaouira

by Gilbert Burks

Golden hour light spills through the open doorway of a traditional riad in Essaouira, illuminating a narrow stone corridor where a local artisan is bent over a low workbench. His hands, dusted with fine white clay, press a wooden bone folder against a sheet of thin leather, smoothing the edges with practiced precision. Beside him, a stack of unfinished pottery shards rests on a woven mat, their rough, terracotta surfaces catching the warm, directional sunlight. A simple glass tumbler of mint tea sweats with condensation on the edge of the bench, reflecting the blue sky visible through the archway above.
