Cayetano Corona Gaspariano
Cayetano Corona Gaspariano is a Mexican potter from San Pablo del Monte, Tlaxcala, who is the only authenticated producer of Talavera ceramics in the state. He left his home state at age thirteen to learn the craft in Puebla, working for years at the Uriarte workshop. In 1981, he decided to return to San Pablo del Monte, founding his own workshop with his sons. This eventually grew into the current La Corona enterprise. The workshop produces bowls, large covered vases called ''tibores'', flowerpots, jars, platters, and tiles. They make some tiles that assemble into murals with country scenes and religious imagery. They use two types of clay, a black sandy type and a rose-colored clay, both bought in bulk in Puebla. They blend the clays and leave them wet to ferment before shaping pieces, usually with molds. The pieces sit to dry in an unventilated room, which can take up to a month. The unglazed pieces are fired, then coated in a white glaze made from tin and lead. They paint pai ...

Talavera (pottery)
Talavera pottery (Spanish: Talavera poblana) is a Mexican and Spanish pottery tradition from Talavera de la Reina, in Spain. The Mexican pottery is a type of majolica (faience) or tin-glazed earthenware, with a white base glaze typical of the type. It comes from the town of San Pablo del Monte (in Tlaxcala) and the cities of Puebla, Atlixco, Cholula, and Tecali (all these four latter in the state of Puebla), because of the quality of the natural clay found there and the tradition of production which goes back to the 16th century. Much of this pottery was decorated only in blue, but colors such as yellow, black, green, orange and mauve have also been used. Majolica pottery was brought to Mexico by the Spanish in the first century of the colonial period. Production of this ceramic became highly developed in Puebla because of the availability of fine clays and the demand for tiles from the newly established churches and monasteries in the area. The industry had grown sufficiently ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
