Tamegroute pottery bowl Ø 24 cm

Moroccan green glazed Tamegroute pottery bowl. Beautiful handmade bowl crafted using centuries-old techniques. Each piece varies; no two are the same. Bubbles, scratches, color variations in the green, and even small spots in the glaze are to be expected and should be embraced as part of the unique, handmade character of each piece. Dimensions: Ø 22 cm. The characteristic green color of Tamegroute pottery is due to a combination of manganese, silicon, and copper. Although the amount of copper is minimal, this ingredient is what creates the beautiful green color. Tamegroute is a small village in southern Morocco. The production of Tamegroute products is known to only 7 families from the village of the same name. Each of these 7 families has 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-point spacers. This creates the characteristic scar found on almost every Tamegroute product.
