Mosaic zellige tiles or zellij are an ancestral north African art. The tradition has been treasured from one generation to another and today only very skilled craftsmen can achieve these complex geometric mosaic works. Ideal for wall and floor coverings, but also for bathrooms, kitchen backsplash or even swimming pools, Moroccan tile has inspired many architects and designers to create custom original works.


How we make our Mosaic zellige.


Zellige has been made in Morocco for over a 1000 years. Finding the highest quality clay is extremely important to produce the finest Zellige tile. The region of Fez has one of the best quality clays in Morocco.

The clay is soaked in water until it reaches a soft texture. Once the clay is soft enough to handle it is filtered by hand.

After filtering, a skilled craftsmen flattens the clay by hand into squares. This part is very important because the clay must be compact with no air bubbles in it.

Raw Zellige clay tiles are then allowed to dry outdoors, like adobe. Most tile production takes place in the summer, early fall and spring.

After the clay is shaped, molded and flattened, it is kept and stored in a cool dry place to be readied for a first bake.

All fired up from clay to kiln.


After the uncured Zellige tiles are dried another skilled craftsmen applies a glaze to the top of the tile.

The Zellige tiles are now placed in natural, wood fired kilns. In traditional moroccan Zellige kilns, heat circulates unevenly, resulting in slightly different tones and colors for each tile. It is these imperfections that make Moroccan tiles so unique and beautiful.

The end product is a mosaic tile with remarkable texture and tone, unlike any other tile on earth.

A tile apart what makes zellige so extraordinarily special.


Zellige making is considered an art in and of itself. This art is transmitted from generation to generation by master craftsmen. There are three craftsmen needed for Zellige. The first selects the tiles and then draws the shape desired and passes the tile to the next craftsmen.

The most important part of this entire process is the third craftsmen, also called the master craftsmen. He specializes in cutting the excess clay and performs precision cutting. The end results are an incredible variety of shaped pieces that are assembled to create intricate Zellige patterns. The possibilities are unlimited.

Good fit, stays tucked.
A little long to wear untucked, but long enough to stay tucked through the work day.

Very small for the indicated size. Fairly thick, more like a Fall shirt than a Summer one
This is almost a 3 star shirt, but it has some drawbacks: 1. it is very short for it's size. I ordered an XX (2X) because I am not skinny. But I am not short either. This shirt would probably be tall enough for a very round 5ft tall man.. but if you are of average or slightly taller than average height you may find the torso length to be radically too small (unless you'r using this as a half-shirt for the gym or beach to show off those abs. :-D ... I am a bit more conservative in nature and so this shirt simply doesn't cut it. *so: if you have a VERY SHORT TORSO this may be a great option for you! :-) Thickness of fabric; the material is really thick. I was immediately getting warm when wearing this. It is advertised as a summer shirt but really it is more appropriate for Fall or Winter. Otherwise, the buttons seem durable, the stitching is adequate, and the price ain't bad. Lets call it 2.75 stars; recommended only on conditions indicated above.

Slim fit
I like the light material and styling. It does fit a little closely, so watch out if you're a bit large.
