ARTS AND CRAFTS

One of the first industries that was established in the city was the manufacture of tiles with characteristics such as those which the Spanish City of Talavera de la Reina had at that time: white clay, blue drawings and a glazed finishing.
The technique demonstrates a clear oriental influence, which over the years became Mexicanized. The array of colors was expanded to include yellows, greens and flesh-colored which we know. The tiles produced in Puebla continue to be one of the finest Mexican crafts, and in as much as they are manufactured manually, custom-made pieces can be obtained. In general, establishments will take charge of packing and shipping.
