Artbeldi Pottery Workshop Workshop Poterie

The Artbeldi Pottery Workshop sits behind a heavy wooden door that opens into a space filled with the scent of damp earth and woodsmoke. Shelves climb the walls, holding rows of bowls and tagines glazed in deep cobalt and emerald. This workshop serves as a working studio where craftsmen throw clay on foot-powered wheels, just as their predecessors did centuries ago. Hassan, who has shaped clay here for thirty years, often keeps his hands covered in wet gray slip while welcoming visitors.
