This style of tilework has a name: zellij. Zellij mosaic tilework is made from individually hand-chiseled pieces forming various patterns based on tessellations, especially Islamic geometric motifs such as radiating star patterns. It is most ubiquitous in Morocco and Algeria, as well as parts of Tunisia.
