ZIRI was founded by two young, socially-engaged, Dutch-Moroccan sisters, Amal and Ikram. Although the duo grew up in a Western city, they’ve always maintained a profound connection to their roots. These steadfast female entrepreneurs are now on a mission to share a cherished piece of their heritage with people around the world, simultaneously keeping an ancient tradition alive and supporting the talented Moroccan artisans behind it. These vibrant and eccentric Tajines are carefully handcrafted in Fez, Morocco; the same beautiful country where this iconic earthenware originated. Not only does your purchase support the makers and their community, but they also preserve age-old clay craftsmanship and are very eco-friendly. In fact, only natural materials are used to create these culture-rich items, right down to the mineral-based pigments that bring the Tajines to life.
