Product Description
The Mexican Talavera Tile – Terracotta Red Blue Design showcases a hand‑painted, symmetrical floral motif rooted in Puebla and Dolores Hidalgo craft. At the center, a four‑petal flower in earthy terracotta red radiates from a small blue circular core, while soft powder‑blue stems arc outward and interlace with bright yellow and fresh green scrolls. A neutral cream field amplifies color clarity and keeps the composition readable at near and far distances. Painted with clean outlines and balanced negative space, this tile installs as a seamless repeat for feature walls or as a focused accent in backsplashes and stair risers.

Durable and easy to maintain, it brings authentic Mexican character to kitchens, baths, fireplaces, and garden walls.
