Pair of Hand-Painted Talavera Lidded Jars – Fruit & Floral Designs
Pair of vividly hand-painted Talavera-style pottery jars with lids, both crafted in Mexico and marked on the base. The larger jar features a classic fruit motif—pineapple, grapes, melons—while the smaller displays bold floral and scrollwork in rich cobalt, gold, and red. These pieces reflect the centuries-old Talavera tradition, a ceramic art form originating in 16th-century Puebla that blends Spanish majolica glazing with indigenous artistry.
Talavera pottery is prized for its luminous glazes and hand-painted designs, and authentic examples from recognized workshops are highly collectible. These jars make striking decorative accents and carry the heritage of one of Mexico’s most celebrated folk art traditions.
