In Sejnane, pottery is not shaped for decoration alone—it is part of daily life, of gestures repeated and shared.

This backgammon set extends that tradition into play.

Each element is formed by hand from local clay, shaped without a wheel, and fired in open flames. The process leaves visible traces—subtle variations, irregular edges, and tones shaped by smoke and heat. No two sets are identical.

More than a game, it becomes an object that remains present even when not in use.

Placed on a table or a low surface, it invites interaction—then settles back into the space once the moment passes.

The markings echo Berber symbols, carrying meaning beyond ornament—linked to protection, continuity, and balance.

Made in small batches by women artisans, each set reflects a practice rooted in place and passed across generations.
