Hand Thrown Glazed, Signed and Dated Artisanal Ceramic Pottery Bowl

Large heavy Moroccan Tamgroute Tribal green terracotta glazed bowl. Very large avocado green glazed earthenware bowl from Morocco. Antique Moroccan Berber Tamgroute green glazed decorative terra cotta large decorative bowl. Wonderful green and brown shimmering that can be found only in south Morocco in the village of Tamgroute. The dark green color and texture is a result of the particular alchemy created by the potters of Tamegroute and remains a family affair handed down through the generations.
