Tile Pattern Features
Color Palette
The mural features a rich, traditional Talavera palette dominated by deep cobalt blue in the border, warm golden yellows in the radiant mandorla, and earthy reds and greens in the Virgin’s garments. Soft ivory tones form the background tiles, allowing the central figure to stand out clearly. Accents of emerald green, olive, and white appear in the calla lilies, while small touches of black and dark blue add contrast and visual definition.
Design
The composition is vertical and highly symmetrical, centered on the figure of Our Lady of Guadalupe. The image is carefully scaled so the figure, angel, and floral elements align cleanly across evenly sized tiles, with visible grout lines reinforcing the handcrafted nature of the mural. The central figure is framed by a glowing aureole, creating a strong focal point that draws the eye upward.
Decorative Elements
Key decorative elements include the radiant golden mandorla, stylized calla lilies symbolizing purity, and the cherubic angel beneath the Virgin’s feet. The surrounding cenefa features repeating heart and floral motifs in bold colors, fully intact and evenly sized, emphasizing rhythm and balance. The border tiles act as both a visual frame and a decorative counterpoint to the serene central image.

Installation Tips
Plan the mural layout dry on a table first. Use white thin set mortar, set from a level line, and back butter each tile. Keep 3–4 mm joints and choose non sanded grout to protect the glaze. Seal cement grout only, caulk changes of plane, and allow full cure.
Maintenance
Wipe splashes promptly and clean with pH-neutral soap and water. Avoid acids, bleach, abrasive powders, and harsh pads. Reseal grout annually, inspect caulk at edges, and use a soft nylon brush for stubborn residue. Do not use steel wool or metal scrapers.
