Descripción
Refers to a type of maiolica earthenware, distinguished by its milky white base glaze, made in and around the city of Puebla, Mexico since the sixteenth century. Talavera's name derives from Talavera de la Reina, Spain, whose tin-glazed earthenware served as the initial model for this colonial variant introduced by Spanish craftsmen.
