Product Description
The Hand-Painted Amapola Flower Accent Tile brings a cheerful touch of Mexican folk art to any rustic space. Featuring a daisy-like amapola flower, this decorative ceramic tile is handcrafted in the Talavera tradition with white petals outlined in black and a warm yellow center.
