Moroccan Zellige — A Timeless Art and Heritage Renewed

Moroccan Zellige is not just colorful tiles decorating walls and floors; it is a rich artistic language reflecting Morocco’s deep history and the spirit of its skilled artisans. For centuries, Zellige has been an inseparable part of Moroccan identity, carrying profound aesthetic and spiritual meanings.

Zellige: A Legacy of Meticulous Craftsmanship

Zellige making has always been a craft that demands great skill and patience. It is handcrafted from tiny pieces of colored ceramics, carefully cut and shaped to form intricate geometric patterns. Moroccan artisans have passed down this distinguished craft for generations, blending engineering and artistry into a unique mosaic.

Symbols and Colors of Zellige

Every shape and color in Zellige holds its own significance. The repetition of geometric shapes symbolizes infinity and unity, while the colors express life, nature, and spirituality. This art form does not only convey visual beauty but also tells cultural and historical stories that document Morocco’s rich civilization.
