Firing is the final step in pottery making, where souls blend with nature and the surrounding land around the fire.

Happy to host a group of English tourists at our family homestay, Dar Lala Zhour , for a 2-day immersive pottery journey.
On the first day, they began their experience by collecting clay from the mountain near the pottery village, followed by learning traditional hand-building techniques while enjoying breathtaking views of Al Wahda Dam from the pottery setting , under the guidance of our talented potter, Zhour.
Today, they will continue by finishing the process by polishing and firing their pieces.
Stay tuned, we’re excited to share the final results!

The motifs used by our participants are freely chosen to symbolize elements of nature, plants, and animals. They are often inspired by traditional patterns found on carpets, carved or painted wood, as well as the henna designs and tattoos adorning women’s hands.

Firing is a truly magical moment when earth, water, air, and fire unite to give birth to new creations. As the sun sets, its golden light dances on the dam, reflecting the beauty of nature and craft coming together in perfect harmony. 🔥

When the flame comes out of the covered fire , the potters call it “the bride” a beautiful sign that the firing is complete and the pieces are fully baked.
It’s a moment of joy and pride, when the clay finally transforms into strong, lasting pottery through the power of fire.
