Welcome.
This is a classic Talavera Chicken, new, festive, and typical of the Latin American use of bright and beautiful mixes of colors. The feathered friends shape is flowing and smooth from the rounded head to the wonderfully fanned tail. Many shades of glaze are used in wonderful harmony, all accented against the predominate and complimentary orange.
Compare this piece to similar ones. The glazed detail is more intense and fine here. See how the orange and red merge with each other on the tail feathers and the neck. Notice the complexity of shapes and density of design. See the smooth and flowing form of the body compared to others. This is a finer piece of pottery at a lower price.
The inside is glazed as well as the outside. Whether a potted plant is placed in it or you do it yourself with soil and flowers, this piece will last for years. This pottery is perfect for indoors or outdoors, where ever added beauty is appreciated.
