Fes is renowned for its exquisite ceramic and pottery craftsmanship, making a visit to a ceramic workshop a fascinating experience. These workshops often showcase traditional techniques passed down through generations, with artisans creating intricate designs and vibrant patterns that are characteristic of Moroccan pottery.
In a ceramic workshop, you can observe the entire process, from shaping clay on the potter's wheel to hand-painting intricate zellige tiles, plates, and tagine dishes. Many workshops also offer hands-on experiences where you can try your hand at molding or painting pottery under the guidance of skilled artisans.
One of the best places to explore this craft is the Artisanal Village of Fes (Complexe Artisanal des Potiers), located in the city’s outskirts. Here, you’ll find workshops specializing in traditional Fassi ceramics, famous for their bold blue and white designs. It’s also an excellent opportunity to purchase authentic handmade ceramics as souvenirs or gifts.
