El azulejo vidriado Zellige , también Zilij o Zelij, es un azulejo cerámico fabricado a mano con arcilla natural no refinada. Se trata de una tradición ancestral, que se remonta a la época Andalusí en el siglo X. Este azulejo llegó desde la región de Fez en Marruecos, donde se sigue fabricando con la técnica tradicional.

Esta pieza se elabora amasando la arcilla con agua, se moldea a mano y se deja secar al aire antes de una primera cocción en horno para obtener la baldosa de Terracota. Sobre la pieza se aplica posteriormente un esmalte vidriado en múltiples tonos semitransparentes, nacarados, metalizados/volcánicos u opacos. La última etapa en la fabricación del Zellige es el recorte de las piezas esmaltadas en una infinidad de formas y tallas (cuadrado, estrella, triángulo, etc).

El Zellige se caracteriza por tener una superficie irregular con variaciones de tono, brillo, planeidad, transparencia y profundidad en el esmalte. Es un azulejo artesanal y cada pieza de Zellige es única.
