Cobalt Talavera Style Flower Pot (6 Inch Diameter), "Puebla Petals"

Classic petal motifs in cobalt blue on off-white grace a beautiful ceramic flower pot. Isabelle Collins works in the style and technique of classic Talavera ceramics to create a bold, eye-catching design. "We use the same techniques and styles used in 16th-century Puebla. Classic Talavera used only six colors, all of which were natural glazes compounded at home with mineral pigments. We create our homemade paintbrushes using mule hair or horsehair from the mane or tail, according to the thickness desired for our motifs," the artisan explains.
