Zacatlan Flowers Artisan Crafted Majolica Ceramic 9 Inch Salsa Bowl

Pedro Tecayehuatl

(89)

Flowers blossom with an exuberant feast of colors on salsa bowl designed in the Talavera style of the state of Puebla. The motifs are painted by hand over the ivory-color ceramic bowl with a palette that includes yellow-orange, blue, and green flowers over a crisscross network of dots and crosses. Bordered by a black honeycomb, this bowl comes from the 'Zacatlán Flowers' collection designed by Pedro Tecayehuatl.

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.

They Are Stealing the Girl Kidnapping the Bride Painting Signed Guatemalan Fine Art

Filiberto Chali

(1)

"I like to show our ancestors' traditions through my art, so that our children realize how different is their life compared to my generation, and older," confides Filiberto Chali. Painting with oils, he tells the story of how a young woman is stolen from her parents' home by her boyfriend and his friends. The only witness to the event is a man with a couple of bottles, perhaps not the most reliable of witnesses.

Kidnapping brides used to be a fairly common practice in San Juan Comalapa, Chali's hometown. The reason for taking her could be anything, from her being underage, her parents not allowing the union, or her not wanting to marry the groom. By kidnapping her, the parents were ultimately obliged to allow their union lest she be deemed unchaste by everyone else. Today the custom continues, but only when there is consent, and then the festivities ensue.

Titled "Se Roban a la Muchacha" in Spanish.

Innocence Oil Realist Portrait Painting of Child with Blue Headscarf

Carolina Cabrera

This extraordinary oil painting features a backdrop blending different shades of blue, starting with dark blue at the edges and gradually lightening in a chiaroscuro effect with a combination of sky blue and turquoise hues, which in turn transforms into the headscarf of a beautiful and innocent child. Guatemalan artist Carolina Cabrera says she finds “pure innocence, an unexplored world of possibilities and a palette of emotions yet to be discovered in the baby’s gaze. Every stroke that shapes that face of infinite sweetness is a tribute to the fragility and beauty of childhood.”

Titled Inocencia in Spanish.

Cat Fancy Handcrafted Five Fanciful Cats Ceramic Decorative Plate

Maria Isabel Cruz

(107)

Five colorful cats across a yellow background smile on this handcrafted decorative ceramic plate perfect for the feline fancier. Designed by Mexican artisan Maria Isabel Cruz, the plate is made using the centuries-old dry rope technique, in which a wax mixture made of magnesium oxide and fat are applied to the outlines of the image or motif prior to glazing. The wax mixture creates a barrier that keeps the different fill colors in the design separate during firing, before burning off to reveal the blackened ceramic beneath. The plate can be hung on a wall for display via the nylon cord on the back.

Flower Spiral Multicolor Hand Painted Spiral Wall Art Paper from Mexico

Edgar Trejo

(1)

Featuring handwoven areas with open spaces, this composition is inspired and original. The technique has been passed down through generations of Mexico's Otomi people, and carried on by Edgar Trejo. He works with vegetable dye on handmade amate, or tree bark paper, which takes several days to procure through a complex process. Amate was a sacred material for the Aztec and Mayan peoples, historically used to write down and chronicle important events and trade, even serving as the bridge between the mortal and the spiritual worlds during religious ceremonies. According to Otomi traditions, the bark used to produce amate can only be extracted from a tree during certain parts of the lunar cycle, indicating the high level of respect held toward nature. With a freehand geometric floral design, this folk art painting is full of history. A spiral shape twirls in the center.

Ceramic teapot, 'Zacatlan Flowers'

Talavera beauty

This is another beautiful piece of Talavera that I will proudly add to my collection. I was a bit concerned that it might be damaged in transit, but they did an OUTSTANDING, OUTSTANDING job of packing it, further proof of the conscientious manner and value that Sr. Tecayehuatl exemplifies in his work. Lovely, thank you.
