Product Description
Talavera Fleur Scroll Relief Border Mexican Tile features a vertically centered fleur-de-lis motif framed by turquoise scrollwork and layered ornamental bands. A warm cream ground enhances contrast, while red diamond accents, cobalt detailing, and rich brown lower flourishes create structured chromatic depth. The pronounced molded relief produces strong shadow lines, giving this decorative border architectural presence when installed beneath cabinetry, around fireplaces, or along courtyard walls. Each tile resets cleanly within its frame, making it ideal for modular repetition in Spanish Colonial, Mediterranean, or hacienda-inspired interiors. Order today to introduce sculptural Talavera elegance into your project.
