> 
> My Syrian refugee project is on hold until after the committee meeting on
> Monday so I've gone back to Iran.
> 
> Our next adventure was visiting a craft center in Isfahan where artisans
> are given a space to create their crafts which are for sale to tourists.
> We were the only tourists there.  One workshop was making Khatam which is a
> form of marquetry - inlaid pieces used to elaborately decorate boxes,
> furniture and other things.  I had no idea how it was made.  Bundles of
> strands of different kinds of wood, metal, gold are glued together and then
> sliced very thinly and glued to the surfaces.
> The process is tedious but beautiful!
