Bkerzay | Made in Lebanon
A Chouf eco-village reviving Lebanese pottery from the earth up.
About Bkerzay
Bkerzay is an eco-village and cultural retreat set in the hills of the Chouf, near Baakleen, dedicated to sustainable living, hospitality and traditional Lebanese crafts. At its heart is a pottery atelier where skilled artisans revive time-honoured ceramic techniques, shaping clay into tableware, jars and decorative homeware that reflect the surrounding landscape.
The project pairs a guesthouse, olive groves and nature with active workshops, allowing visitors to watch – and even try – the pottery-making process. Bkerzay’s ceramics have found their way into design retailers and homes well beyond Lebanon, carrying an earthy, handmade character that speaks of place and heritage.
