This stamp pays homage to Ammar Farhat through a scene showing women and children shaping terracotta objects.

Farhat here magnifies the craftsmanship of pottery (particularly famous in Nabeul or Sejnane). The table underlines the central role of women in the preservation of ancestral know-how and the community and family dimension of this craft linked to the land.
