    Hand painted Talavera pottery has been well know for years.  Imported from Mexico where artisans create original designs and hand
    paint each item painstakingly. Due to the nature of Talavera, colors and designs will vary.
    Mexican Talavera began in the 16th century. As the Spanish colonization of Mexico was underway, so too was the inception of what would soon be known as Mexican Talavera. After founding the city of Puebla, Spanish monks and artisans from Talavera de la Reina began sharing new techniques with local natives to enhance their pottery and ceramic skills. The introduction of the potter's wheel and tin-glazing, along with new colors and patterns, helped blend centuries of indigenous craftsmanship with the fine-tuned styles of European, Asian and Arab pottery and ceramics. As a result, the unmistakable beauty and quality of Mexican Talavera was born.  It didn't take long for standards and regulations to be set for Mexican Talavera. In order to protect and preserve their product, potters' guilds were created and the fame of their craftsmanship began to spread. Churches and monasteries were decorated with vibrant Talavera tiles, jars and religious figures. Soon the high demand for these ceramics grew well beyond Mexico, as Talavera began to be exported back to Europe as well as other regions of the world. The demand for authentic Mexican Talavera continues to this day and can be seen throughout the United States, most notably in the Southwest.  Talavera tiles are used in homes and businesses, meals are enjoyed on Talavera plates, place settings, Talavera planters and vases commonly adorn homes. Whatever the use, Talavera's rich history and cultural importance continues to live on in every handmade piece.

    The color of the items can vary from green, dark green, blue or black.
    Most products are handcrafted one at a time. It is therefore very rare to create identical items. Homemade pieces are a creation of artisans, and based on different craft styles that are centuries old. There may be natural blemishes/variations that are not product flaws. Such variations are inherent in the manufacturing of handmade products, so you may find minor distinctions that make your buys special and truly one-of-a-kind.
