Talavera Planter with a Blue Floral and Butterfly Motif

Product Description

The Talavera planter with a 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.

Production Technique

Handmade in Dolores Hidalgo workshops, this planter is shaped, glazed, and painted using tin-glaze traditions. Mineral oxides create rich cobalt, red, and lime tones. Crisp outlines define petals and butterfly motifs with precision. The glossy glaze enhances color brilliance and prevents fading. Firing unites glaze and clay, producing durable finish. Minimal bleeding at color joins indicates proper technique and temperature control. Each planter varies slightly in brushstroke, confirming its handmade origin.

Artisan Testimony: “Butterflies represent balance and renewal. Painting them alongside flowers honors both tradition and nature.” — Sofía Martínez, Dolores Hidalgo
