Moroccan Tamegroute bowl 27 cm

Moroccan green glazed earthenware plate. Beautiful handmade plate crafted according to age-old techniques. The ancient glazing technique involves silicon, manganese, and copper, which, once fired in earth kilns, results in the striking green hue. Sometimes copper is replaced by iron oxide to achieve a more brownish/olive result.

Each piece varies; no two are the same. Bubbles, scratches, color variations in the green, and even small spots in the glaze are all to be expected and should be embraced as part of the unique, handmade character of each piece.

dimensions: Ø 27cm

The characteristic green color of Tamegroute pottery is due to a combination of manganese, silicon, and copper. Although the amount of copper is minimal, it is precisely this ingredient that creates the beautiful green color. Tamegroute is a small village in southern Morocco. The manufacturing of Tamegroute products is known to only 7 families from the village of the same name. These 7 families each have their own kiln and workshop where they offer their Tamegroute products. Since so many products are made and the kilns are not large enough, the products are stacked on top of each other using three-pointed separators. This creates the characteristic scar found on almost every Tamegroute product.
