Product Description
The Talavera planter with blue floral and butterfly motif is a vivid expression of Mexican hand-painted pottery. Its rounded body is framed by a cobalt rim and foot, offering balance and containment. A central rosette with sky-blue petals and a lime green ring is outlined in black for crisp detail. Butterfly wing motifs in red and black flank the medallion, symbolizing movement, balance, and transformation. A garland of green leaves accents the rim, while scalloped red bands frame the floral design. Alternating cobalt and yellow lattice panels add rhythm and depth across the surface. Glossy glaze, fine outlines, and precise brushwork highlight its craftsmanship. Handmade in Dolores Hidalgo, this planter unites Spanish-Moorish geometry with Mexican folk imagery. Order today to bring cultural artistry and vibrant charm into your home or garden.
