In this photo taken Thursday, June 18, 2015, Oud maker Mahmoud Abdulnabi works in his shop in Baghdad, Iraq. Abdulnabi is one of the last craftsmen in Baghdad who carves ouds by hand. “Our brothers, the makers in Syria, Turkey and Egypt, might produce 12 pieces a day using machines”, Abdulnabi said. “We produce one or two pieces in a month”.
