Hand-Painted Floral Talavera Ceramic Wall Cross from Mexico – Faithful Bouquet

Hand-painted with a bouquet of colorful floral motifs, this ceramic wall cross brings the beauty of Talavera handicrafts to any home. Mexican artisan Pedro Tecayehuatl creates this beautiful addition to your wall decor.

Talavera is a distinctive art form brought to Mexico by artisans from Talavera de la Reina, Spain. The ceramic artisans of Puebla, Mexico then incorporated Chinese designs, thus creating the blue and oyster-white patterns traditionally associated with Talavera Poblana. Today there are also more ‘contemporary’ designs that include yellow, green, orange, mauve, black and red.

National and international conventions require that a rigorous procedure be followed in the elaboration of authentic Talavera-style ceramics. Each individual piece will be slightly different, and therefore a unique work of art.
