Rustic San Miguel
Talavera
is a type of majolica earthenware, a white and glazed type
of ceramic. Although the Spaniards introduced this type of
pottery, ironically the term Talavera is used much more in
Mexico than in Talavera de la Reina, Spain. In fact,
Talavera is the oldest tin-glazed ceramic in America and it
is still being manufactured with the same techniques as in
the 16th Century. |
