Talavera That Will Brighten up Your Home
What is Talavera Pottery?
Talavera pottery is a Spanish tradition. Talavera pots are made of different types of clay. They are hand-painted and typically have a glazed finish. As a result, their walls are usually thinner than ordinary pots. Talavera is popular among pot enthusiasts who like bright colors.
Talavera is extremely loved in Puebla Valley, Mexico. It is more common there than anywhere else in the world currently. According to Authenticity Perceptions of Talavera Pottery, it is one of the most traded items among colonies. Talavera caught on and grew huge even in the US. It is commonly replicated at lower quality. For authentic Mexican Talavera pottery, purchase it from a store that sources it from Mexico.
Talavera is famous for a number of reasons:
- Vibrant colors -Finding high-quality ceramics with super bright colors like orange or yellow isn't easy. Bright colors are heat-sensitive, so they are harder to use in ceramics. Talavera pottery allows pot makers to utilize vivid colors while offering a premium, weather-resistant pot.
- Uniqueness – With authentic Talavera, each pot is handmade. You will get a pot that no one else has. The uniqueness of each pot in your house will make each plant as significant as the next.
- Tradition – Culture can get lost in the vast amount of mass-produced items in retail. When you purchase Talavera, you directly support a group of artists who create the pots.
