Holiday rentals in Sejnane

Sejnane in a region protected by the Krumiria mountains, the vil­lage of Sejnane, inhabited by Berbers, had a very closed economy for quite a long time because the only natural resources were the nearby forests, some pasturage and tobacco cultivation along with lead and zinc mining.

Here, as for other regions of the country such as the Sa-hel and the South above all, the berber women have al­ways modelled ceramics to provide for the family's needs. The decoration is characterized by the use of limestone with radial geometric motifs, recalling certain  weaving textures called "berber" such as the "mer-goum". Zoomorphic and anthropomorphic figures also appear; they are the fruit of the fanciful imagination of a Sejnane farmer, recalling, at the same time, prehistoric art as well as some modern artists who found inspira­tion in naif art. However, because this kind of ceramic is no Iqnger only for household use, but is commercialized for the tou­rism industry, the danger of some bastardization of the form exists.
