Talavera and the Tile Tradition
Talavera is a tin-glazed pottery tradition that Spanish potters brought to Puebla in colonial Mexico. It takes its name from Talavera de la Reina in Spain.
In 2019, UNESCO inscribed the making of artisanal Talavera on its list of intangible cultural heritage. The listing covers Puebla and Tlaxcala in Mexico and two towns in Spain.
Why These Round Dangle Earrings Work
Tile patterns repeat bold shapes and strong color, which suits a small disc. Blue and yellow, red and green, and black outlines make each round dangle earring easy to match. Mexican tile earrings like these never feel dull.
Wear them with a casual sweatshirt or a business suit. Explore more Talavera tile earrings in our Museum Jewelry collection.

Wearing and Caring for Your Earrings
At 1 oz, these Mexican tile earrings feel light. Wear this Spanish tile jewelry with solids so the pattern stands out. Hang these round dangle earrings or lay them flat to keep the wires straight. Wipe with a soft dry cloth.
