Product Description
This Talavera Tile Green Blue Border measures approximately 4x4 inches and is handcrafted in Mexico from glazed ceramic with a smooth glossy hand-painted finish. Its dominant green leafy scrolls, cobalt blue outlines and accents, sky blue central fleur-de-lis form, red-orange blossoms, crisp white background, and green framing bands create a balanced repeating composition with strong decorative rhythm. Rooted in Mexican Talavera craftsmanship, Spanish Colonial ornament, and Moorish-inspired scrollwork, this border tile blends Old World decorative influence with the vivid color traditions of Puebla and Dolores Hidalgo. Designed to repeat continuously as a cenefa, it works beautifully for kitchen backsplashes, stair risers, patios, fountains, accent walls, and transitions between plain or patterned tile fields. The glossy glazed surface keeps the colors bright while highlighting the natural variation of hand-painted ceramic work. Bring flowing ornament, vibrant contrast, and timeless Mexican Talavera character into your next tile installation.
