Product Description
The Mexican tile with yellow medallion design reflects vibrant Talavera artistry rooted in cultural tradition. A symmetrical medallion dominates the surface, combining golden yellow, red, green, and white tones in bold contrast. The circular red center and surrounding teardrop motifs create symmetry and rhythm, while the quatrefoil medallion expands outward with elegance. Green corners provide structure, and red scrolls add movement along the edges. Hand-painted on ceramic, this design balances organic flow with geometric order, making it ideal for backsplashes, stair risers, or Spanish Revival interiors seeking warmth and heritage.
