Process of How They are Made:
Raw Material Collection: High-quality brass is the primary material used. It's chosen for its durability, luster, and malleability.
Design Sketching: Before the crafting begins, artisans conceptualize and sketch intricate patterns, drawing inspiration from Moroccan traditions, nature, and architecture.
Cutting & Shaping: The brass sheet is cut according to the design. The shaping process involves careful hammering and bending to achieve the desired form.
Embossing & Engraving: The real beauty of these chandeliers emerges from the delicate, hand-embossed and engraved designs. This is where the intricate patterns come alive, with each chandelier bearing the unique touch of the artisan.
Assembly: Different pieces, often shaped separately, are then soldered or riveted together to create the final structure.
Polishing: The chandelier undergoes rigorous polishing to bring out the inherent sheen of brass, ensuring a gleaming, elegant finish.
Quality Check: Before the final product leaves the workshop, it undergoes a quality assessment to ensure the piece is flawless.
Where They Are Made:
Moroccan Brass Chandeliers are traditionally made in cities renowned for their brassware craftsmanship, such as Fes and Marrakech. These cities have for centuries been the epicenter of Moroccan metalwork, nurturing generations of skilled artisans who have preserved this traditional art form.
