Description: 7.5” square, scalloped edge. Some glaze chipping on blue edge. 1.5” tall Plate stand not included. No crazing. This Mexican Talavera tray trinket" come from the venerable and highly collected Uriarte workshop of Puebla, Mexico. From the Wikipedia entry on Uriarte: "Uriarte is one of the oldest producers of Talavera pottery in Mexico. This is a kind of majolica, named after the city of Talavera de la Reina which had developed in Spain from Arab and Chinese origins and brought to Mexico after the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire. While majolica was made in a number of places in Mexico, it became highly refined in the Puebla city area, especially from 1650 to 1750. Talavera work is distinguished by the fine clays found in this area, fired with a tin and lead glaze at high temperatures. This glaze is off white to slightly yellow. The decorations are done only in black, cobalt blue, blue, yellow, green, red and sometimes deep rose, with the design slightly fused with the glaze which crazes.
