Product Description
This Talavera Tile with White Petal Cross Pattern blends traditional artisan glazing with modern visual clarity. Featuring a symmetrical white form that resembles either a four-petal flower or a minimalist cross, this tile offers striking contrast against a deep cobalt blue background. The bold simplicity makes it suitable for contemporary and mid-century settings, yet it retains the handcrafted appeal of Talavera tilework from Dolores Hidalgo. The white motif radiates from the center in teardrop shapes, each petal soft-edged and evenly spaced, reinforcing balance and symmetry. The clean lines and high-gloss glaze enhance the crisp edges, while the two-tone palette provides maximum design versatility. Whether used in a repeating backsplash, featured as a standalone decorative square, or applied in garden walls or bathrooms, this tile introduces graphic elegance. Perfect for homes or boutique spaces seeking a minimalist aesthetic with artisan roots. Discover the elegance of the White Petal Cross Tile.
