All of the Moroccan Mosaic Zellij is produced in the historic city of Fez. Starting with the clay of Fez, the impurities are extracted first, then the clay is mixed until homogenous, cast into square tiles, and left to dry in the fiery sun. Once dry, the mosaic tiles are smoothed, rendered flat, and dipped in colored enamel. The enamel is made of natural minerals such as tin, zink, and copper. The mosaic tiles are then kiln-baked. The Moroccan mosaic artisan begins by hand-cutting the 2″x2″ square piece of tile into the desired shape.
