NWT Zellige Tiles are hand moulded, hand cut and hand glazed by Moroccan master craftsmen. Natural clay from the Fez region is mixed with water, hand-shaped, dried, and then kiln-fired, often using olive pits. Enamel glazing is then applied to the fronts of the tiles by hand, producing a bright semi-transparent and deep colour hue. The mosaics have a charming irregular shape which ensures the multidirectional reflection of light, resulting in a unique texture as no two zellige tiles are exactly alike.
