Blake Jensen Talavera Pottery-Inspired Cat Figurines

Famous for its rich hues and classic designs, Talavera pottery draws its name from the 16th-century Spanish pottery center, Talavera de la Reina. During the Colonial period, Spanish artisans introduced Talavera to Mexico and began sharing their craft with artisans who then blended centuries of indigenous craftsmanship with the refined styles of European pottery. The result? Beautiful Mexican Talavera that is so prized today! Now, for the first time, cat lovers and admirers of Talavera pottery alike will be delighted to discover this vibrant, first-ever collection of earthenware cat figurines by Blake Jensen, inspired by this classic art form! Introducing the Paws-itively Patterned Companions Figurine Collection, a limited edition available exclusively from The Hamilton Collection.
