A timeless craft that blends color, texture, and tradition.

The Art of Moroccan Zellige

Moroccan Zellige is one of the country’s most iconic crafts, known for its rich colors and geometric beauty. Each tile is shaped and glazed by hand, giving it a natural texture and subtle variations that make every piece unique.

Rooted in centuries of tradition, Zellige continues to bring warmth, character, and authenticity to modern spaces — a true blend of art and architecture.

Where centuries of artisan heritage shape every handmade tile.

A Craft Born in the City of Fes

The history of Zellige dates back to the 10th century, when master artisans inFesperfected the craft. For generations, families have passed down the techniques that define Zellige today: hand-molding clay, cutting tiles with precision, and firing them in traditional kilns.

This heritage lives on in the workshops of Fes, where each tile reflects the soul of Moroccan craftsmanship.

Clay, fire, and skilled hands creating truly one-of-a-kind pieces.

Handmade the Traditional Way

Zellige is still made using ancient methods. Clay from the hills around Fes is shaped by hand, dried under the sun, and fired in wood-burning kilns. Afterward, artisans glaze each tile individually, creating rich tones and organic imperfections.

The final result is a timeless material known for its beauty, depth, and handcrafted charm; no two tiles are ever the same.
