Dozens of large handcrafted terracotta clay jars and vessels are displayed outdoors at a traditional pottery workshop in Kom Oshim village, Fayoum, Egypt. The pieces—varying in size, shape, and form—are left to air-dry in the sun following the potter's wheel shaping process, a step before kiln firing. Pottery production in Kom Oshim is an inherited craft passed down through generations, representing one of Egypt's active traditional handicraft industries.
