History
Cerámica Al Yarrar was born in 1984 in the Albayzín distric, Granada.
In a small workshop located over the Bañuelo, in front of the Alhambra and on the border of the Darro River.
At the head of a group of artisans, Bernardo Sanchez undertook the path of rescuing the pottery tradition of Al-Andalus. After several years, the ceramic pieces and the decoration have been perfected until reaching their own and very recognized style, always keeping the basic structure and the decorative harmony of Andalusi Ceramics.
A lot of artisans / friends have passed through Al Yarrar who have left their mark throughout our history. Currently our workshop is located in Atarfe, Granada.
