Our Talavera: A Touch of Mexico
Talavera Tile brings vibrant personality to any space. We combine authentic Mexican Talavera tiles with custom wood to create one-of-a-kind pieces. These handcrafted treasures blend natural wood’s warmth with Talavera’s colorful, intricate designs. Each piece is a stunning display of artistry and culture, perfect for furniture, décor, or accents.
Our Talavera
Talavera Tile is a centuries-old art form with deep roots in Mexican culture. It’s known for bold colors and intricate patterns. Originally from Spain, it flourished in Puebla, Mexico, blending Spanish colonial and Mesoamerican influences.
Our Tiles
Each Talavera tile is handcrafted from clay and hand-painted using mineral-based pigments to achieve its signature vibrant hues. The tiles feature geometric and floral designs, often in cobalt blue, yellow, red, green, and white. These colors and patterns tell stories of Mexico’s rich history and cultural pride.
Our Commitment: Authenticity and Artistry
Because of its cultural significance, Talavera tile is a protected craft. Authentic pieces must be certified to ensure they follow traditional methods. Each certified tile is a true work of art. Paired with custom woodwork, Talavera tiles add color, texture, and cultural authenticity to your home. This combination creates timeless, bold designs perfect for furniture, décor, and architectural elements. The warmth of wood and the charm of Talavera make every piece both functional and a celebration of Mexican heritage.
