The palette balances soft floral shapes with clean geometry, delivering a graphic look that reads beautifully at any distance.
Regional Design Influences
Scrolls and symmetry echo Spanish‑Moorish ornament found in historic Talavera, while the stylized flower reflects indigenous interpretations of nature. Cobalt, terracotta, and yellow are classic Dolores Hidalgo colors, prized for brilliance and durability in architectural accents.

FAQ – Mexcian Tile
A: Traditional Talavera wall tiles are not floor‑rated. Use on walls, risers, fireplaces, and facades; for floors, select tiles specifically rated for foot traffic.
A: Yes, for vertical or decorative areas. In freeze‑thaw climates, use a suitable substrate, waterproofing, and exterior‑grade setting materials, and prefer covered locations.
A: Warm white, ivory, or light sand grout frames cobalt and terracotta without overpowering the pattern. Typical joints are 1/16–1/8 in.
A: Use a pH‑neutral cleaner or mild soap and water. Avoid acids, bleach, and abrasives that can dull the tin‑glazed surface.
A: It’s suitable for fireplace surrounds and kitchen backsplashes. Avoid direct flame contact and follow manufacturer/installer guidelines for heat exposure.
A: Expect slight variations in color and linework due to hand‑painting. Order 10–15% extra for cuts and future touch‑ups from the same batch.
