Spice Market

No. 33 of 50 · free · 300 dpi

What you seeA dense grid of market signs on a black frame: red spice cones, scales, mortars, dates, rugs, lanterns and tea glasses.

What it meansSpice sellers in the souk heap their wares into tall cones, and the scale has long been the sign of an honest trader; the Quran asks for weight to be kept with justice (55:9).

Where it worksBusy and warm, it suits a kitchen or a dining room.
