Talavera Mexican Art Tiles 4x4

Mexican talavera tile has been loved for years by many, for its folkloric aesthetics and rustic appearance. Traditional mexican talavera tile however has its limitations. It is created on an artisan red clay body that cannot be used outdoors in harsher climates. Also, with many sources of Spanish talavera tile, designs vary little from a dozen or two common patterns, surface textures are flat, and colors mute.

We have transformed Mexican talavera tile with vibrant colors, unique and creative designs and an innovation most important of all, a durable porcelain hand painted tile body suitable for use in swimming pools and outdoor installations in all climates. We import into Mexico from Europe an all-weather porcelain body that is then hand painted by artists in Puebla, the most renowned source for high quality artisan ceramics in Mexico.
