TILES:

Speaking of Moroccan decoration, we can't forget to mention the tiles. Also called Moroccan zellige it is a Moroccan specificity. You can find them hand painted, colorful and spectacular. 

Le climat froid des pays occidentaux ne permet pas l’utilisation du carrelage dans toute la maison. C’est pour cela qu’il faut penser aux petits espaces où vous pourriez les utiliser, tels que le douche, votre couloir ou même dans la cuisine. 

 Pottery:

La poterie marocaine est un artisanat qui s’est transmis de génération en génération et qui a pu atteindre une reconnaissance mondiale. 

La poterie marocaine est très riche et cette richesse peut s’illustrer par l’existence des différents styles de poterie: the city pottery qui est sophistiquée en reprenant les motifs de l’art islamique, produite principalement à Salé, Fès et Safi ; rural pottery reflétant l’art berbère, sobre et moins coloré mais tout aussi décoratif.
