Chouara Leather Tannery – Fez, Morocco: The ancient craft of tanning and dyeing

Fez is famous for its leather products and most of it comes from the leather bazaar. Chouara Tannery is the largest and oldest and has existed since the 11th century.

Chouara Tannery is composed of numerous limestone vessels filled with a range of natural dyes. Animal hides are prepared by soaking in the limestone vats. The dying pits contain natural vegetable dyes, such as poppy flower, indigo, henna, cedar wood, mint and saffron.

This image was photographed by Poppy when she visited Fez in 2019.

The limited edition size for this print is 100, and is exclusive to Platform gallery.
