Regional Design Influences
This pattern follows central Mexico Talavera tradition and reflects Spanish Moorish design heritage through medallion symmetry and bold cobalt foundations. The cobalt, yellow, green, and white palette matches historic colonial decorative language. It pairs naturally with Spanish colonial and Mediterranean interiors that favor structured ornament and saturated color.
Artisan Craftsmanship
Artisans hand paint the outlines and color fields to keep separations clean and the medallion geometry consistent. A glaze coat enriches the saturated tones and creates a smooth surface that highlights the contrast between cobalt and white. Kiln firing sets the glaze and locks in the crisp palette. Slight variation in line weight and glaze tone is expected and valued as part of handmade work.

Installation
Dry lay a small section first to confirm orientation so the corner accents connect the way you want across the surface. Start from a centered reference line to keep the medallions balanced at edges and corners. Maintain consistent joints so the radial symmetry reads cleanly and the interlocking corner motion stays continuous.
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 white contrast clear. Regular gentle wiping helps preserve crisp outlines and keeps the glaze looking bright.
