The rhythm of Mexico beats in Guanajuato, a city and state bearing the same name, nestled in the heart of Mexico.
There soaring mountains, fertile farms, and historic cities captivate with their natural beauty, historic architecture, cultural treasures, and lingering legends.
The state of Guanajuato boasts two UNESCO World Heritage sites. The historic center of Guanajuato city with its nearby colonial-era mine shaft Boca del Infierno (Mouth of Hell), which hosts El Cervatino the worldās largest Latin American Music Festival, and the historic city center of San Miguel de Allende filled with numerous colonial churches and towering architectural treasures strewn amongst cobblestone streets.
The vibrant patterns and saturated colors, gracing Dolores Hidalgo style talavera, are just one of the many folk art wonders youāll discover as you explore the unique handcrafted artisan treasures in NOVICAās Guanajuato collection presented in partnership with COFOCE.

Love At First Sight!
It's amazing how a piece of clay can be transformed into heirloom. The unpainted clay surfaces reveal a creamy white clay that must be unique to the artist's region. The swirling painted design is bold & elegant. The beading outlining the design gives it depth and nice texture. The glaze makes the colors vibrant. The box was shipped promptly. It was carefully packaged. Sheets of paper were expertly molded to the shape of the box to pad it for shipping. It was fun unrolling everything to discover my "prize". Please continue this design in other products in your line. I hope you restock the wall cross! I highly recommend this seller and would gladly be a repeat customer.
