Talavera from Puebla, Mexico

Talavera pottery is a type of majolica earthenware of a distinct creamy- white glazed decoration produced only  in the State of Puebla in Mexico. Talavera Poblana is the oldest tin-glazed ceramic in America and it is still being manufactured with the same techniques as in the 16th Century.

Authentic Talavera pottery is the ceramic ware produced by certified workshops in the state of Puebla Mexico following the traditional Talavera process introduced by the Spaniards in the 16th Century. There is usually the word "Talavera" or "Puebla" on the bottom of these pieces.

    Love the 100 Mexican Clay Tiles Talavera Ceramic Handmade in Mexico! Those are quite snazzy tiles. Wasn't familiar with Talavera until finding your lens.

    Me gusto mucho el video "One Semester of Spanish." I was a Spanish tutor in undergrad...I just wish I could show this to my students to show them just how much they actually know! It's hilarious! Also, I really like Talavera as well and have several lenses dedicated to it, my favorite though is this one: http://www.squidoo.com/talavera-revealed Let me know what you think! Chao!
