Syrian artisans preserve threatened craft
The article highlights the efforts of artist Yamama Turkmani in preserving the art of leather burning, one of the oldest traditional crafts in Aleppo, Syria. Turkmani has been practicing this craft for 26 years, transforming natural leather into decorated artistic pieces using heated metal tools. This process requires high precision in controlling temperature and pressure to achieve intricate details and a variety of color shades. This craft is considered endangered due to the difficulty in sourcing natural raw materials such as undyed leather, as each piece is unique and influenced by natural factors that affect its shape and color. Turkmani aims to promote this craft and train new generations, emphasizing the importance of preserving cultural heritage and strengthening handmade crafts as a means for successful economic ventures.
