Zellij Gallery are masters of Zellij craftsmanship, with 104 years' experience working in the craft. They bring to life the ancient traditions of Moroccan tile making and design. The family business was established in 1912 by Maallem and master craftsman Solomon Farhi. Maallems, or Zellij artisans, have been trained in the complexities of design and craftsmanship of Moroccan tiles for thousands of years.
In 1948, the Farhi's son, Miloud Farhi began the journey of learning the Maallem craft from his father. He joined the Cooperative of Maallems Zelligeurs de Fez, in 1982 after his father passed away. This cooperative of master craftsmen successfully completed many international projects and won several awards.

Zellij Gallery are masters of Zellij craftsmanship, with 104 years' experience working in the craft. They bring to life the ancient traditions of Moroccan tile making and design. We are an American family business with a long heritage of authentic Moroccan tile making. Our ancestors, based in Fez, Morocco, have been designing and creating Moroccan tiles since 1912.
While we aim to provide a true representation of the Zellij color palette, sometimes you will notice a difference between what you see on the website and the Moroccan tile colors in real life. We have gone to great efforts to show our colors as realistically as possible, but it can never be a 100% true representation due to the limitations of selecting colors on screens.
Zellij Gallery uses the latest in technology to provide valuable tools to help you select the right color and style combinations to suit your project. If you are interested in experimenting with colors for your Moroccan tiles, check out our Mosaic Color Matching tool. Here you can mix, match and see different color combinations to help you decide what Moroccan tile colors are best for you.

Whoever said that craftsmanship is dead had never dealt with Zelliji Gallery. WOW! We wanted something different in our downtown, LA loft, so we decided to put a mosaic on one wall of our shower – traditional Moroccan pattern/traditional Moroccan colors. It must be seen to be believed. The vibrant colors are exceeded in their beautiful only by the quality of the tile itself. We have never been prouder or happier.
