Authentic experience in a beautiful scenery
This workshop will give you the opportunity to get acquainted with the art of pottery from Tamegroute, a small and quiet village 18 km south of Zagora. These workshops, which have been around since the 16th century, produce the superb green pottery varnished with hues ranging from reseda to pine to olive green, gives the region an international reputation. The technique hasn’t changed and is passed on from one generation to the next, repeating the same gestures time after time. Currently, seven families still work there.
