Holiday Giving with Heart:  Artisan Talavera Pottery

The beautiful, color-drenched, gorgeous holidays.  From Christmas to Hanukkah to Kwanzaa and more; it's the personal element that makes this time of the year sparkle and shine.  And that is why a gift of Talavera pottery, hand-finished Mexican pewter and extraordinary Majolica tableware is so uniquely irresistible.

So, as it is clear, we are proud, heck, more than proud, love to offer our collection of unique gift ideas; one-of-a-kind artisan presents that are hand-crafted, sustainable, and made by family-owned studios that spend hours, even months, creating each uniquely gift-able masterpiece.

Our collection of Talavera pottery from Mexico's finest Colonial region are joys of locally-sourced artistry.  The studio carefully sources the local clays, minerals and paint materials used to hand create each and every piece.  That's why a true Talavera pottery piece has such a deep, deep lustre, rich coloring and appealingly sturdy feel to it.  It's made like no other piece of tableware on the planet.  Each and every Talavera plate, bowl, cup, mug and serving piece is the work of a trained master craftsman.

The piece you are seeing here is from our Aguacate Collection; Spanish for avocado and the stylized design star of this particular series.  Glowingly painted with deep shades of ochre red, gold, green and cobalt blue, these pieces subtly reflect holiday coloring, but can be enjoyed year-round. 

Shop and enjoy now!  Visit the Collection.
