Outdoor Elements

Zellige Tables

Zelliges are small little squares made of tile and are an important element in Moorish and Moroccan architecture and decorating. The word tile is derived from the French word tuile,

which is, in turn, derived from the Latin word tegula, meaning a roof tile composed of baked clay.

These particular tiles with natural pigmentation are from the region of Fes. They are set in cement and cut entirely by hand. Then assembled in a mosaic of tiles ,circled by a metal

belt and sealed by a slab that gives a strong resilience to all weather conditions. Each table takes hours to complete

The cities of Fes and Meknes remain the centers of this art.

The dedication and handiwork of hundreds of skilled artisans, whose determination is to create only the best and most traditional forms of Moroccan craftsmanship for you to

enjoy in your home.
