Working in the time-honored tradition of Talavera ceramics, Ivan Martinez creates this pretty decorative plate. The plate is crafted from ceramic and painted by hand with 'La Calavera Catrina' before receiving the final glaze.

The original "La Calavera Catrina" was a zinc etching created by the artist José Guadalupe Posada in Mexico around 1910. Posada created the character, a female skeleton with an elegant hat, as a satirical portrait of Mexican natives who aspired to European style and denied their own heritage. The catrina has since become an emblem of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration and a popular folk art subject.

Lovely pot”

I love the vivid colors but relatively thin-walled. Still hoping it ll last long and not break immediately.
