This Talavera ceramic pot is handpainted in a multicolored theme. Inside diameter is 12. Mexican Talavera Ceramic pots have a drilled hole at the bottom; this enable them to be used as a planter. We recommend to use a smaller plastic planter to put inside; this will prevent eroding to happen and will give a longer life to the pot. This ceramic pot is just an example of the exquisite beauty the Mexican craftsmen put on each item they create. It is hand-crafted and hand-painted, which means not two pots are the same! There might be small differences in size, weight and even the colors. The top part is painted in a deep dark cobalt blue color."
