Story Behind the Art

Although there are some women entering into this craft, Moroccan pottery is an art form predominantly practiced by men. Artisans range in age from teenagers to men in their late 60's. Pottery of this type is made in Safi, Morocco, a fishing town on the Atlantic coast of Morocco. Safi is known as one of the centers for this art and utilizes red clay to create the ceramic pottery. Clay is softened by hand, and formed using a potter's wheel which is powered by foot, using age old techniques. Pieces are dried in the sun then baked in kilns that are over 200 years old. All items are hand etched and painted. The artisans live comfortably but modestly. Most do not own automobiles but are able to walk to work due to the close proximity of their homes to the medina (center of town). Within the medina, there is a souk (market) where most of the artisans work. This is also the center of trade for each city.
