The Village of Tunis nestled in the Fayoum Oasis in Egypt: An Artistic and Cultural Center

In the heart of the Fayoum oasis, the village of Tunis is a place where art and tradition meet. Pottery has occupied a central place there for millennia.

Thirty years ago, Swiss potter Evelyne Porret founded a school to pass on her expertise to the village's youth, reviving a primary art. Today, her students have opened workshops and are now teaching in their own right. While the school remains a central focus, numerous independent workshops exist in Tunis, each creating unique pieces. The potters produce works that combine tradition and innovation, appreciated both locally and internationally by collectors.

Each creation is the fruit of ancestral know-how enriched by the creativity of artisans, telling the story of the village, the beauty of the flora and fauna and conveying a simple and authentic joy of life. All pieces are produced by hand, in earthenware, hand-painted and glazed.
