Zellige is a traditional decorative glazed tile, handcrafted in Morocco. The richness of the colours and their nuances, as well as the variability of the shapes, are the definition of Zellige.
Each tile of Zellige is a unique piece.

Authentic Handcrafted Zellige Tiles

Our Zellige tiles are handmade by specialist craftsmen at our workshops in Tangier. This traditional tile is made from raw, light-coloured unrefined clay sourced from the from the Fez region. This natural soil material is kneaded with water, shaped by hand and then sun-dried.

After a first firing, the biscuit - called Bejmat - is glazed, tile by tile, in a wide variety of colours and transparent shades. The final stage of production is the cutting of the glazed Bejmat into tiles of many shapes and sizes.

This intricate process ensures that each Zellige tile, with its subtle imperfections, brings unique character and craftsmanship to any design.
