Very well made Mexican tiles
We have chosen this style when renovating a guest house in the countryside. We thought it goes very well with the overall farmhouse theme of the decor. The delivery was on time and the tiles look very well made.

Decorative Talavera TIles
An elaborate work of art is how we could describe shortly our Mexican tile “Starfish”. This design consists of very detailed flowers and leaves that form the shape of a star. The combination of hues brings harmony and can help you add a dose of color to any setting, both indoors and outdoors. The artisan has used warm and cold tones to create this incredible image with blue, green, and yellow being the predominant colors. Decorative, ceramic tiles will brighten and refresh any room and the application ideas are endless.
