One of the most picturesque and
impressive parts of the ba-zaar is the copper-smiths market. As you
approach it, a tinkling andbanging and clashing begins to impinge
on your ear. It grows louderand more distinct, until you round a
corner and see a fairyland ofdancing flashes, as the burnished
copper catches the light of innu-merable lamps and braziers. In
each shop sit the apprentices——-boysand youths, some of them
incredibly young——hammering awayat copper vessels of all shapes and
sizes, while the shop-owner in-structs, and sometimes takes a hand
with a hammer himself. In thebackground, a tiny apprentice blows a
big charcoal fire with a hugeleather bellows worked by a string
attached to his big toe the redof the live coals glowing bright and
then dimming rhythmically to the strokes of the bellows.
Here you can find beautiful pots and bowls engraved with delicate
and intricate traditional designs, or the simple, everyday
kitchenware used in this country, pleasing in form, but undecorated
and strictly functional.
Elsewhere there is the carpet-market, with its profusion of rich
colours, varied textures and regional designs——some bold and
simple, others unbelievably detailed and yet harmonious.
