Talavera Circular Vitral Medallion Tile

Product Description

Talavera Circular Vitral Medallion Tile combines bold stained glass energy with classic Talavera structure through saturated cobalt blue, golden yellow, brick red, emerald green, and crisp white. The colors sit in flat, clean fields that stay sharp and easy to read, with blue framing the layout and yellow creating a luminous base behind the central forms. A circular rosette anchors the pattern, while interlaced bands add movement without losing symmetry. Rounded curves soften the geometry and keep the design rhythmic across a surface. Hand painted, glazed, and kiln fired in traditional Mexican craftsmanship, this tile is ready for statement installations. Request details, confirm quantities, or place your order.

Regional Design Influences

This tile follows central Mexico Talavera tradition and carries Spanish and Mediterranean influence through layered medallion geometry. Interlaced curves reflect Moorish decorative logic expressed in a square format. The saturated palette and crisp separation align with historic colonial era surface decoration.

Artisan Craftsmanship

Artisans hand paint the outlines to define each color zone with clean separation. Solid fills are applied with controlled brushwork to keep hues saturated and edges sharp. A glaze coat enriches the colors and creates a smooth finish. Kiln firing sets the glaze and preserves the clarity of the pattern, with small handmade variation valued as part of the craft.

Installation

Dry lay a small section first to confirm alignment so the rings and corner steps read consistently across joints. Start from a centered reference line to keep medallions balanced at edges and corners. Maintain uniform joints so the interlaced rhythm stays continuous across the surface.

Cleaning

Wipe the glazed surface with mild soap, warm water, and a soft cloth. Rinse with clean water and dry with a towel to keep the cobalt and yellow contrast clear. Regular gentle wiping helps the layered outlines stay crisp.
