The featured items originate from all of Morocco’s cultural spheres: jewels forged from fine metal, printed matter, lamps, ex-votos, clothes, weaves, pieces of embroidery, manuscripts, and the numerous functional objects used in everyday life as well as on special occasions.
Taking a sensitive look at Muslim and Jewish craftsmen and goldsmiths, this guide demonstrates how, through the creation of these objects, they have invented an identity which still nurtures Moroccan arts today.
