Maarkab – Grand Riad Floor Tile
Handmade Moroccan Terracotta – 4" × 4" (10 × 10 cm)
The Maarkab is a traditional Moroccan tile, historically laid in the grand riads of Fez. Crafted from high‑quality Fez natural clay, each 4" × 4" (10 × 10 cm) tile is hand‑shaped and fired using centuries‑old methods. The result is a surface rich in texture and variation that ages beautifully while offering exceptional durability.
