  • In the region of Tetouan at Frane Ali, according to an immutable cycle of seven days, Rachida, we discovered all the steps of the making of his pottery, from the collection of clay to the sale of fruits of his work. Further east is the Beni Ouriaghel's turn to unveil the secrets of their fine pottery delicately worked. Finally, in the south of the Rif, in the village of Ain Bouchrik, the potters fashion large objects according to a particular method. Everywhere, the gestures are precise, the ancestral know-how.
