Discover the two different shaping techniques most practiced in Moroccon pottery, the turning on the famous traditional potter's wheel and the technique of molding.
You can make several pieces on the potter's wheel and in modeling. Have the choice between taking your Cru pieces with you and letting them dry at home and you can put them in your suitcases and paint them afterward.
