Six ceramic tiles with Hebrew inscriptions. [Fes? Morocco, second half of 19th century].
Clay tiles, painted in blue and glazed.
Set of six tiles for suspension in two rows (one above the other) on the outer wall of the house, with the blessing "Baruch Ata Bevo'echa UVaruch Ata Betzetecha" (You shall be blessed when you come, and you shall be blessed when you depart). In addition to the text, the tiles are decorated with pointed arches and fine vegetal patterns covering the entire surface.
"Fes was the most important center for clay vessels in Morocco. Most items were functional, intended for daily use, in particular kitchen utensils. However, apart for these, large quantities of tiles were produced in Fes and were used as architectural decoration. Most items were decorated with paint and then glazed… In the years 1853-1881 blue was the dominating color..." (Hebrew). (Pottery from Morocco 19th-20th century C.E, by Rachel Hasson. Published by the Museum for Islamic Art, Jerusalem, 1982, p. 4).
Approx. 9.5X9.5 cm. Good condition. Damage and breaks, primarily to edges. Losses to glazing and paint.
