----------------------------
Our Moroccan plates come in two distinct base styles to suit every taste and occasion:
• Flat Base Plates: Sleek and practical — perfect for everyday meals, tapas, desserts, or elegant food presentation.
• Raised Base Plates: With their elevated foot, these plates add depth and tradition — ideal for serving guests, centerpieces, or decorative wall displays.
Each plate is shaped and painted entirely by hand, making every item unique. The artisan’s brush brings floral and geometric motifs to life in rich cobalt, emerald, saffron, and black — patterns inspired by zellige mosaics and ancient Fez pottery.
Choose from a wide range of sizes: from 15 cm side dishes to large 50 cm statement pieces — perfect for kitchens, dining rooms, or as wall-hung decor. Whether you're building a collection or gifting something truly special, these plates blend functional elegance with cultural heritage.

The stoneware used in these plates is crafted from traditional black clay, sourced from ancient quarries in Fez.
This clay carries a deep sense of history and rustic charm, giving the piece a natural and authentic appeal.
Fez clay is known for its strength, rich texture, and its dark tone that enhances the contrast in hand-painted motifs.
We also offer white clay, imported from Spain, for a more sleek and modern aesthetic.
