Kajjiks The Kajjik is a smaller boat which is usually squared on one side or both. It keeps the same colour scheme and both the Luzzus and the Kajjiks are painted every few years and the exact same way as before due to superstitions and this skill is passed down in generations and the eye of Osiris/Horus is painted aswell to have protection from evil.

Moroccan Tiles Moroccan tiles has a cool toned color which is quite common. It consists of geometric patterns and barely have any organic lines. The overlapping of the lines create different patterns yet equal in size and shape. Over lapping lines are usually white coated for a better contrast.
