Product Description
The colorful Mexican bathroom sink with handcrafted elegance showcases balanced geometry and vivid Talavera color. Its oval form centers on a terracotta medallion encircled by a crisp white quatrefoil rosette around the drain. A marigold mid-band lifts the palette, while foliate scrolls in white with teal-green overlays anchor the four cardinal points. Small yellow dots accent the transitions. A deep cobalt rim thickens the edge visually and protects the lip from wear. The symmetry reads balanced from every angle, while hand-paint cues like tonal banding and micro-pools prove artisan work. Perfect for Hacienda, Mission, or Mediterranean interiors seeking structure, warmth, and color harmony.

Craftsmanship
Each sink is hand-painted using Talavera techniques on tin-glazed ceramic. Slight line wavering, tonal banding, and color pooling confirm authentic production. The cobalt remains saturated without bleeding, reflecting a well-fired glaze. Clean drain rings and opaque whites indicate strong pigment load and careful masking.
