Craft Story
Khayamiya: Applique is a living textiles & fashion tradition from Cairo, Egypt, carried by hands that learned it from the generation before. Every form is shaped by hand — wool, tie & dye — with tools and rhythms that have barely changed in decades. What you hold is not a mere product but a fragment of a place and a person.
