The term "Intangible Heritage: Pottery in Beit Chabeb" highlights the traditional knowledge, techniques, and cultural practices associated with pottery-making in the town of Beit Chabeb. This form of heritage is considered intangible because it revolves around skills, stories, and community traditions that are passed down through generations, rather than tangible objects or monuments. The pottery of Beit Chabeb is a living tradition that embodies the town's cultural identity, history, and artistic creativity. It reflects the shared values of the community and is deeply
embedded in their way of life.

The preservation of pottery in Beit Chabab is integral to the town’s cultural
heritage. Pottery-making continues to be a valuable practice, not just for the physical objects it creates, but for the role it plays in strengthening community ties and maintaining social cohesion. This craft provides a means for storytelling, cultural exchange, and connection to the past. While the traditional techniques remain at the heart of the craft, modern potters in Beit Chabab are also innovating, incorporating contemporary designs while staying rooted in their traditional practices.


Our studio

My pottery studio in Beit Chabab is built on an ecological approach that blends traditional craftsmanship with modern sustainability. I work with locally sourced clay and natural materials, reducing transportation impact and honoring the region’s heritage. The entire studio is powered by 100% solar energy, and my propane gas kiln is operated efficiently to limit fuel use and emissions. I focus on minimizing waste, reusing water, and reclaiming every bit of leftover clay. This commitment to mindful, sustainable practices shapes a creative space where pottery and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
