Frequently Asked Questions

What is Talavera pottery?

Talavera is a centuries-old Mexican ceramic tradition that originated in Puebla, Mexico. It involves shaping clay by hand, applying a white tin glaze base, then painting intricate designs before a final high-temperature firing. The result is a richly coloured, highly durable ceramic with a distinctive glossy finish.

Are Mexican Talavera sinks durable?

Yes, Talavera ceramic sinks are exceptionally durable. The double-firing process at high temperatures creates a hard, chip-resistant surface that holds up to daily bathroom use. With proper care, these handmade basins will maintain their beauty for many years.

What colours are available in Mexican sinks?

Our Mexican sink collection features a wide spectrum of colours, from classic cobalt blue and sunshine yellow to deep terracotta, emerald green, and multi-colour floral designs. Each basin is hand-painted, so slight variations make every piece truly unique. Prices range from $205 to $2,095 AUD.

How are Mexican Talavera sinks made?

Each Talavera sink is handcrafted by skilled artisans in Mexico. The process begins with shaping local clay, followed by an initial firing, application of a white tin-based glaze, hand-painting the design, and a final high-temperature firing that fuses the colours permanently into the glaze.

Can Mexican ceramic sinks be used outdoors?

While Talavera sinks are primarily designed for indoor bathroom use, they can be used in covered outdoor areas such as patios or al fresco bathrooms. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct rain or freezing temperatures, as this can affect the glaze over time. All our Mexican sinks come with free worldwide shipping.
