  • Caring for your product
    Unglazed ceramics, like those from Sejnane, are naturally more delicate and may mark over time. Handle with care, avoiding contact with jewellery or rough surfaces. To clean, use a soft sponge and mild soapy water — never abrasive products. For extra protection, you may apply a thin layer of natural wax suitable for ceramics. Each piece is handmade, and small variations or scratches are part of its story and charm.

About the Sejnane pottery process

In the lush green hills of northwest Tunisia, Tinja partners with three generations of women who preserve the ancient craft of Sejnane pottery, a tradition that dates back to the Neolithic period. Passed down from mother to daughter, this pottery technique was originally used for preparing, cooking, and storing food. Today, it provides these women with both financial independence and a sense of social empowerment, while fostering collaboration within their families.

Tinja has been supporting the revival of this ancestral craft, bringing the Sejnane potters and their traditions into the spotlight. In 2018, this craftsmanship was recognized by UNESCO as part of the world’s intangible cultural heritage.

The long process begins with raw clay collected locally, which is kneaded and shaped by hand before being fired in a traditional ground kiln. The pieces are then finished and decorated by artisans at the Tinja atelier, resulting in timeless works of art.
