Description

Dadas is a single-shape zellige from our workshop in Fes: each piece is shaped by hand, glazed, fired, then cut with a hammer (menqach) by our maâlems. Laid side by side, the pieces make a vibrant surface where no two tiles are quite the same tone.

Each panel measures 43.4 × 29.5 cm and covers 0.064 m², about 16 panels per m². Dadas is available in White, White Carrare, Powder Pink, Yellow, Pop Red, Red, Aqua Green, Celadon, Dark Green, Turquoise, Ocean Blue and Black, and our maâlems can glaze a custom colour for your project at the same price. You buy directly from the workshop, at the workshop price.

What handmade zellige means

These differences are not defects: they are the product. Better to know them before you open the boxes.

Tone variationSTRONG
Two tiles of the same glaze are never identical — that is what gives a zellige wall its depth.
Surface reliefMEDIUM
The surface is not perfectly flat: it catches the light.
Edge chipsFREQUENT
Every piece is cut with a hammer; edges are alive, not machined.
Size variationSLIGHT
A few millimetres between pieces. The joint absorbs them.
ThicknessVARIABLE
Around 1.2–2 cm: shaping and firing by hand mean small differences.

A tile broken in transport is replaced: report it on delivery with a photo.

Frequently asked

Questions about this product

What is the price of Dadas per m²?

Dadas costs 943 MAD per m² in Morocco (excl. TVA), or €101.61 per m² for export. The price covers the zellige only — installation and delivery are extra. Some colours may have a different price. The minimum order is 3 m², and above 50 m² the price is negotiable. The configurator on this page shows your exact total as soon as you enter your surface.

How do I calculate how many m² I need?

Measure each surface in metres, multiply length by width, and add them up: a shower wall 2.40 m wide and 2.20 m high is 5.3 m². Then add a cutting margin — 10% for a straight layout, 15–20% for complex layouts. Each panel measures 43.4 × 29.5 cm and covers 0.064 m², about 16 panels per m². The configurator on this page does it for you.

Can I order a sample before deciding?

Yes, and we recommend it: on a screen two greens look alike; in your room, in your light, they don't. Press "Order a sample first" — we confirm the price and delivery on the phone. You don't need to have measured anything to order one.

Which colours is Dadas available in?

Dadas is available in White, White Carrare, Powder Pink, Yellow, Pop Red, Red, Aqua Green, Celadon, Dark Green, Turquoise, Ocean Blue and Black. Our maâlems glaze in-house, so a custom colour is also possible: choose "Custom colours" in the configurator and we call you to confirm it, with a sample, before production. Because every tile is glazed and fired by hand, two pieces of the same colour are never perfectly identical — that is what gives a laid surface its depth.

Can Dadas be used on floors, in showers or in a pool?

Yes. Our zellige is suitable for walls and floors, indoors and outdoors, and for wet areas such as showers, hammams and swimming pools. It is not frost-resistant: where it freezes, use it indoors or discuss the project with us first.

How long does production and delivery take?

Every piece is shaped, glazed and cut by hand, so production takes 60 to 90 days on average depending on the size of the order. We confirm the exact lead time and the delivery cost to your city or country on the confirmation call.

How does payment work?

No online payment, ever. After you send your order, we call you to confirm the colour, the measurements, the delivery and the lead time. Once you confirm, you pay a 50% deposit and the balance on delivery. If you collect your order at our workshop in Fes, you pay everything there, with no deposit.

Do you deliver outside Morocco?

Yes. We deliver across Morocco and ship worldwide — we have delivered projects to Dubai, the United Kingdom, Australia and Brazil. Customers abroad pay the export price in euros or dollars; we quote the shipping with you before any commitment.
