Tamegroute Glazed Jug
Regular price $145.00Discover the rich history of Tamegroute, one of the oldest towns in South Morocco where pottery has been a family tradition for centuries. The town is home to multiple ateliers, each with their own specialty, passed down through generations. Admire the authentic and unique Tamegroute pottery, known for its signature ombre hue, a true work of art crafted in this region.
The Tamegroute Jug is created through an elaborate and meticulous production process. Starting at River Draa, the clay is excavated and kneaded until it reaches perfection. The shaping of the clay takes hours, resulting in one-of-a-kind pieces of pottery. The glaze, containing 1% copper, is applied and then the jug is fired in the oven, as Tamegroute pottery is only baked once. This process, using clay from the Draa river bed, gives the jug its signature yellow hue.
