Sourced from the Cap Bon peninsula in Tunisia, GHARYAN Stoneware’s pieces are crafted from mineral-rich clay fed by the azure depths of the Mediterranean sea. As an area steeped in the deeply ancient tradition of pottery, expert craftsmen have lived for generations among the citrus, roses, vines, and jasmines in the gardens of Cap Bon, passing down thousands of years of pure artistry, hand-to-hand, to the artisans that continue to create stoneware pieces today. Fired at heats exceeding 1200°C, each piece is naturally heat and shatter resistant, microwave safe, dishwasher safe, and completely free of toxic heavy metals (like cadmium and lead) and carcinogens found in other, less robust, ceramic forms. All of their products are made in Tunisia under sustainable and fair trade conditions.
