These high-end kitchen and bathroom sinks are a perfect reflection of the supreme quality of Moroccan craftsmanship. These sinks have been used to decorate Moroccan homes for generations. The surface of these sinks is adorned with a detailed design that evokes the sea and fish scales. This sink, likewise crafted in Morocco, features a gorgeous and thick brass rim that will lend an air of exoticism to any bathroom.
Due to the fact that each sink is made by hand, slight variations from the sink displayed may occur. The bowl of this sink, which is part of a vanity set, extends beyond the countertop. The sink and counter are integrated into a single sleek unit, creating a sophisticated and uncluttered look. Both the kitchen and bathroom benefit from having sinks constructed in.
Unlike mass-produced sinks, which could chip or peel soon after installation, these Moroccan sinks are handcrafted. Most sinks will have a standard-sized drain. It can be used as a countertop sink or as a drop-in undermount sink, depending on your preference. A thick layer of glaze ensures their longevity. These sinks are sure to be the showpiece of any bathroom or kitchen thanks to their eye-catching design.
The clay used for making these tiles is a substance that can only be found in Fes City, in a location known as "Ben Jellik." Then the clay is brought to a different location and left to dry for 20 days. After breaking it into little pieces with a big hammer when it is dry, they are left to dry again for an entire day before being immersed in water for two days. Then, the artists try to get rid of any rocks or other things that don't belong in the clay before moving on. Then the processed clay is used to make the nuanced patterns, depending on where the zellige would be used. Due to the amount of sunlight this place gets, this kind of process can only happen in Fes.
The processed clay is then baked in the oven for 8 hours at 2000 °C. Then the natural colors are used to paint the surface with vivid detailing. After that, the products are coated with shiny material and glazed for another 8 hours to give them a sturdy texture. The Zellige can withstand any temperature, and the colors remain long-lasting.
In the last stage, the zellige is coated with "La Resin" and flipped downwards to dry. After drying, the products are ready to be shipped. This is how Fes artisans painstakingly make each of these breathtaking pieces of home decor.
