Fair Trade Egypt
Crafts from rural cooperatives, at marked prices, with the workshop's name on the label.
€€ Mid-range
A shop working directly with cooperatives from Upper Egypt, Sinai and the oases: rugs, baskets, embroidery, soaps, spices. You pay a little more than at the souk, and you know where the money goes — that is the whole point.
The extra bit
The Sinai Bedouin embroidery and palm baskets are what you will not find elsewhere in town.
Know before you go
Fixed prices: no point haggling, and the staff will gladly explain each piece's origin.
