Hand Crafted Talavera Style Blue and White Bottle Holder, "Puebla Petals"

This unique ceramic bottle holder crafted by Isabelle Collins in the traditional Talavera style will make a special addition to your table or home bar. Black and white clays from the Puebla region are cleaned, aged and kneaded before the pieces are formed. The items are then slowly dried in a controlled environment before being fired and glazed. Collins uses the traditional enamel colours of cobalt and white, which are applied as they were in the 16th century, with brushes made from horsehair or mule hair.
