Product Description
Cobalt Blossom Harmony is a hand‑painted Talavera tile featuring a layered rosette with cobalt and sky‑blue petals radiating from a small center medallion. Tulip‑like buds connect with dotted stems to create lively movement, while terracotta flourishes and green cartouches anchor the corners.

Vibrant and Unique Tile Design
I ordered the Mexican tile with the green and blue pattern, and it’s even more beautiful in person. The colors are rich and vibrant, and each tile has that charming handmade feel. It added a perfect pop of character to our entryway. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something bold and authentic!

Green with blue terra cotta tiles
Decided to upgrade my veranda facing a garden. The obvious choice when ceramic tiles were concerned were designs reflecting outdoor summer scenery. I found this moorish style ceramic tile design and right from the beginning I know that was it. They shipped my tiles from Mexico and the transit time to New York took almost four weeks. Still, I am satisfied with the tile quality and I loved free shipping offer.
