Moroccan pottery is known for its vibrant colors and intricate designs, often featuring geometric patterns and floral motifs. Artisans use traditional techniques, handcrafting each piece from clay and then glazing it to create a glossy finish. The pottery is typically made in regions like Fes and Marrakech, where skilled craftsmen pass down their knowledge through generations. Common items include plates, bowls, and tagines, which are not only decorative but also functional for cooking and serving food.
