Pack of 50 Assorted Talavera Mexican Handmade 5cm Tiles - Tumia LAC
Pack of 50 assorted 5cm square handmade, glazed Talavera tiles made in the colonial city of San Mi...Pack of 50 assorted 5cm square handmade, glazed Talavera tiles made in the colonial city of San Miguel de Allende, decorated using the silk screen process with traditional Mexican motifs in shades of blue, yellow, green, terracotta and white. Four different tile designs are included in the pack. These tiles are comparable in style to Moroccan tiles. Our tiles are generally about 5mm thick. As they are handmade there is a little variance from tile to tile. Suitable for a variety of situations - kitchen and bathroom back splashes, light duty counter/table tops, stair risers, and hallways. They can be used in “semi wet” situations (eg. splash backs) but not in “fully wet” conditions (eg. inside a shower). They are not suited to use as floor tiles. They are not perfectly suited to outside use as the glaze does crack from freeze/thaw conditions. If you can live with this, they can be used outside. We can't guarantee any heat resistant properties. You can clean the tile in the same way as a normal ceramic wall tile. We suggest non-abrasive environmentally friendly cleaners. Tumia Talavera Tiles are handmade and screen printed in Mexico. They have a long tradition dating back to the 16th/17th when Mexico was under colonial rule. The Spanish came to Mexico and shared their knowledge of pottery and tile making and the tradition has been kept alive, using remarkably similar techniques to this day. Talavera de la Reina, a Spanish village not far from Madrid renowned for its ceramic crafts lends its name to the Talavera tiles. Authentic 5cm x 5cm tiles, approx 6mm thick. Handcrafted in the colonial city of Dolores Hidalgo, Mexico. Each tile is individually silk-screened using traditional techniques dating back to the 16th-century Spanish colonial era. These tiles showcase the rich cultural heritage of Mexico. The intricate patterns and bold colors provide a stunning Mediterranean aesthetic that transforms any rustic or vintage-style space. Ideal for kitchen and bathroom backsplashes, stair risers, hallways, and light-duty tabletops. Their intricate patterns breathe life into Edwardian, Victorian, or bohemian-style interiors. At 6mm thick, these glazed tiles are excellent for DIY projects. Create unique drink ceramic coasters, mosaic art, or furniture inlays. Simply clean with standard non-abrasive household cleaners. Designed for long-lasting beauty, these tiles wipe clean just like standard ceramic. Perfect for "semi-wet" areas like kitchen backsplash while maintaining their vibrant colors for years to come.
