More information
The ancient city of Fez offers uniquely designed and colored Moroccan ceramics
with Islamic influence in intricate patterns, colors, design, and production.
For over six centuries Fez created the finest Moroccan pottery.
Its beauty comes from the complex knowledge of geometry passed on from father to son.
Due to the variation in the glazing process, no two pieces are exactly alike.
Fez is renowned for the choice of cobalt oxide that gives the pottery its distinctive shade of blue.
Some Fez and Meknes potters moved to Safi in the 18th century to take advantage of its rich clay deposits.
This highly decorative ceramic style was greatly influenced by the Moorish Andalusian
period when the moors and the Jewish fled the Reconquista in 1492 and settled in Fez.
