About this asset
Workers lift and stretch large sections of freshly dyed orange fabric over deep stone dye vats inside Salama Dyehouse (Masbaghet Salama), located on Bab El-Wazir Street in the Al-Darb Al-Ahmar district of historic Cairo. The dimly lit interior reveals multiple workers mid-process, with colorful dyed textiles hanging to dry in the background. This traditional craft dyehouse represents a surviving example of Cairo's historic textile dyeing industry, concentrated in the medieval quarters of the city.
