Worked, turned, inlaid and painted, wood and woodwork are essential elements of Moroccan decoration. From the ceilings of the Bahia to the small pieces of painted furniture, Moroccan woodwork is omnipresent.
Wood panelling is the star of the Bahia Palace, with luxuriously painted ceilings and walls, carved and decorated doorframes and elaborate moucharabiehs giving an idea of the luxury of Moroccan palaces.
