A densely stocked antiques and copperware shop at Khan El Khalili (خان الخليلي), Cairo's historic Islamic bazaar, displaying rows of illuminated brass lanterns hanging from the ceiling, engraved copper coffee pots (Dalla), decorative hookahs (Shisha), hand-painted ceramics, and oriental trays. Khan El Khalili has operated as a major commercial and craft market since the Mamluk era in the 14th century, making it one of the oldest continuously operating bazaars in the MENA region. The warm golden light cast by the lanterns is characteristic of traditional Egyptian coppersmith (Nahhas) shop displays.
