Serpiente - hand decorated washbasin from Mexico

This hand decorated washbasin features hand painted designs inside and out, and the flattened and rounded shape of the bowl make the decor visible from all sides. All basins are hand-painted by a Mexican artist, so each is a unique piece of functional art.

The basins require no special cleaning or care products. Thanks to the thick layer of glaze, with which the washbasins are covered, the patterns remain resistant to any mechanical or chemical damage. During the firing process, the pigment bonds with the glaze, making the patterns resistant to abrasion and scratches.

The washbasin is made in the traditional Talavera technique and comes from the small village of Dolores Hidalgo in central Mexico. The Talavera technique is characterized by richness of design and intensity of color. Each washbasin is unique and is sure to enhance the uniqueness and style of your bathroom.
