How a Copper Tray Is Made in Fez
In Fez, Morocco, artisans craft copper trays entirely by hand using traditional techniques. They begin by selecting a high-quality copper sheet, then cut and shape it with hammers to form the base. The metal is heated several times to soften it and allow precise shaping. Skilled engravers then decorate the tray with geometric, floral, or Arabic motifs using fine chisels. After engraving, the surface is polished to achieve a bright shine. The final result is a handcrafted copper tray that reflects the rich artistic heritage of Fez.
