Hand-Formed Pottery Backgammon Set type_bowl

Hand-Formed Pottery Backgammon Set type_bowlIn Sejnane, pottery is not shaped for decoration aloneit is part of daily life, of gestures repeated and shared. This backgammon set extends that tradition into play. Each element is formed by hand from local clay, shaped without a wheel, and fired in open flames. The process leaves visible tracessubtle variations, irregular edges, and tones shaped by smoke and heat. No two sets are identical. More than a game, it becomes an object that remains

The game itself is simple

This fouta is woven from cotton

it remains present—an object defined as much by its form as by the light it carries

each set reflects a living practice rooted in place

the form remains—an object that continues to exist beyond its first use

Its size allows flexibility—placed beside a bed

passed from one generation to the next

The eye symbolizes protection against 'the evil eye'

Glass is shaped differently from clay—through air

giving each bowl a distinct presence

The variation in scale creates a natural structure for serving: smaller portions

it shifts without effort
