In Morocco, beldi means traditional, local, and artisan-made - as opposed to roumi, or modern and industrial. Morocco’s four pottery centers are each known by the color of the clay they produce. The red clay used to form these little soldiers is produced in Wadi Lan, where the rich, cardinal soil is ideal for terra cotta production. Artisans dry the cups in the sun, fire, glaze and then fire them again in outdoor kilns. Glazed in white, the lacquer and clay material of these beautiful pieces insulate both hot and cold contents equally well.
Flaweless for mint tea, cocktails, or even water, beldi cups add a rustic touch to dinner parties and garden soirees. Plus, a glass of wine in a beldi cup? Hello instant Incognito Mode!
