Large pieces are highly prone to warping or cracking during the slow air-drying phase (which takes up to a month) and subsequent high-heat kiln firings. Why a 15-Inch Size Matters In authentic Mexican Talavera production, a 15-inch vessel is classified as an oversized masterwork centerpiece (often called a tazón grande or ensaladera monumental). • The Craftsmanship: Hand-throwing and firing a piece of earthenware this wide requires incredible skill. Large pieces are highly prone to warping or cracking during the slow air-drying phase (which takes up to a month) and subsequent high-heat kiln firings. • The "Naïve" Pastel Pattern: Unlike the high-contrast cobalt blue patterns commonly seen on everyday plates, your bowl features a delicate, multi-color floral rim. This softer, hand-painted aesthetic is typical of mid-to-late 20th-century vintage regional dinnerware collections from Puebla workshops. This is from my personal collection. has been in my family for decades. used on very infrequent occasion. this is a grand centerpiece. hard to find stuff this big I have been shipping glass and delicate things around the world for the last fifteen years. i am very good at getting it packed properly so that it arrives safely to you. I sip daily so that you get things faster. Condition: New other (see details). Category: Pottery & Glass › Decorative Cookware, Dinnerware & Serveware › Plates. Brand: Tlaquepaque.
