Artisan Crafted Blue Ceramic Luncheon Plates (Pair), "Puebla Kaleidoscope"
Shipping Timeframe: 7 to 17 business days. Delivery Estimate
A flower blossoms with scintillating beauty, spreading its petals throughout the ivory background of these luncheon plates. Like a kaleidoscope in blue undertones, the magnificent design is by Pedro Tecayehuatl, expert in the legendary art of Talavera-style ceramics from Puebla. Featuring black contours, the cobalt blue plates are crafted by hand.
Talavera is a distinctive art form brought to Mexico by artisans from Talavera de la Reina, Spain. The ceramic artisans of Puebla, Mexico then incorporated Chinese designs, thus creating the blue and oyster-white patterns traditionally associated with Talavera Poblana. Today there are also more "contemporary" designs that include yellow, green, orange, mauve, black and red.
National and international conventions require that a rigorous procedure be followed in the elaboration of authentic Talavera-style ceramics. Each individual piece will be slightly different, and therefore a unique work of art.

"Wonderful quality"
My bowls arrived today, and I was amazed by their weight. These are solid AND beautiful bowls -- good for serving condiments, salad, or soups/stews. Plus they match the blue in my Dansk plates. Many thanks!

"Fabulous blue and white bowls that go well with my Danish dishes!"
I have picked up a few blue and white talavera serving dishes over the years during my travels in Mexico, but these are, by far, the best quality! These bowls will look lovely on the table with my Royal Copenhagen Danish blue fluted pattern, and I am delighted with them.
Best Uses
- I have used the bowls to serve soup, stew and pasta
- On each occasion my friends complimented me on the lovely bowls
