Named after the Spanish city of Talavera de la Reina, this uniquely Mexican ceramic has gained worldwide acclaim for its high quality and beauty. The Aztecs used red and orange clays and primitive firing techniques to create pottery with rigid geometric decoration to a more natural design with animal and floral patterns. Spanish colonization of Mexico and the 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.
