The products of Moroccan handicraft are one of the fundamental characteristics of the Moroccan lifestyle. Over 40 corporations have been working wood, metal, copper, wool, linen, stone and clay for centuries. Adapted to the needs of modern life, our handicraft production relies on our traditions, offering a large variety of products ranging from small works of art to the simplest utilitarian objects. A wonderful scent and sense of life come out of it.
MOROCCAN LEATHER-WORKING, Morocco has a thousand types of Moroccan leather-working, all of which are of old tradition -in Fes and Marrakech a whole district is reserved to tanners. Fes, Marrakech : wallets, desk sets, babouches, leather poufs etc... Tetouan, Shefshaouen, Taghzout : multiple-compartment bags, leather- covered earthenware, plates and belts.
