Product Description
This handcrafted Talavera ceramic tile bursts with vibrant character, combining lattice symmetry and botanical ornamentation in a rich folk palette. At the center, a yellow diamond grid intersects with petal-like black lines, creating a dynamic floral pattern that draws the eye inward. Surrounding the core design are vivid red scrolls, green leafy flourishes, and deep blue flowers set in corner medallions, each framed by golden petal clusters. The white backdrop offers contrast, while the cobalt blue border gives the tile a grounded frame. Each piece is individually painted by skilled artisans, showcasing regional artistry with timeless color and charm. Ideal for statement backsplashes, colorful patio accents, or stair riser murals.
