One of the finest specimens of Morocco's traditional craft of pottery and ceramics, this unique and beautiful bathroom sink features an exotic and attention-grabbing design. The craft of pottery and ceramics can be considered one of Morocco's true treasures. It is the most representative form of handicraft in the local culture, with a variety of designs and colors, and it was influenced by the cultures of both the Berbers and the Moors.

 

Our shop carries a wide variety of traditional items, including wash basin sinks, bowls, dishes, plates, pots, and vases, all of which feature eye-catching designs. Because trained artists make and paint each piece by hand, no two are ever exactly the same. Each component contains a history and a mission that are waiting to be uncovered by the player. You may make use of them to give your kitchen and bathroom a look and feel that is distinct, as well as to improve the aesthetic quality of your home as a whole.

 

As always, the goods are covered under a 5 years warranty. The warranty covers functionality (Leaks, Broken parts) and the finish of the sink. If any problem occurs, you will be sent the required parts immediately.

 

Clay, a material unique to Fes, is mined only there, at a location known as Ben Jellik. The first step is transporting the clay here, where it will sit for 20 days to dry. Afterward, we use a heavy hammer to smash it into smaller pieces, and after another day of drying, we soak it in water for two days. Next, there are those who sort through the clay, removing any rocks or other debris before passing it on. Because of its proximity to the sun, Fes is the only place on Earth where you can experience this kind of action.



Other workers then shape the clay dough into flower vases, jars, plates, and so on, a skill passed down through generations.

Then we bake the handmade items at 2000 degrees for 8 hours. Next, we'll be painting the goods to match the colors of the walls, tables, and fortune cookies.



We use dyes made from plants and minerals to give our goods a more authentic look. Horse hair is used to make paintbrushes. They employ many hues, including blue, red, black, etc.

After they are finished, the products are coated with a material that makes them shiny before being baked again for 8 hours on burned wood. The paint holds up to both hot and cold water, and you can use them indefinitely.



Next, Nekkach is given Zellige after it has been painted and baked a second time; the type of pattern used on Zellige is determined by its final location. He lays them out backward in a geometric design inspired by historic sites like Karaouiyn and royal palaces.



When they are dry, we apply a material called "la resina" or "cola sima" and hang them up to dry. The Zellige pattern is revealed after they are flipped to their front sides. Clay artisans in Fes, Morocco, created that.

 

Shipping: Since these products are made to order, it will take 15 days to create your order and another 2–3 business days to ship it. Please contact us via email if you have any questions.
