Product Description
The mexican tile cobalt red with palacio design blends vivid color with refined symmetry, reflecting the artistry of traditional Talavera craftsmanship. At its center lies a crisp white floral motif with four stylized leaves, each featuring fine inner line detailing. Surrounding the flower, small white dots enhance balance and harmony. A rich cobalt blue background contrasts with terracotta red outlines, while fresh green layers add vibrancy and golden yellow edging highlights the arches framing the design. These layered arches create a rhythmic transition between warm and cool tones, giving the piece its distinctive Palacio character. Originating from Puebla’s Talavera tradition, this tile incorporates Spanish colonial elegance and indigenous symbolism. Ideal for kitchen backsplashes, bathroom walls, stair risers, and accent borders, its hand-painted glaze finish offers durability, cultural charm, and timeless appeal for both classic and modern spaces.
