History:

produce cutest, beauty that becomes functionality ornament and utility within for the
magistracy and the artisan's sensibility that patient and laborious it resists the against
factors of the modernity and their hurry to conserve the leisurely, meticulous and
creative, artistic tradition.
In the town of San Pablo del Monte, in the state of Tlaxcala, the art of
working the talavera was not known. It was on 1981 that a small shop was born in charge of
the great ceramist Don Cayetano Corona Gaspariano that had the knowledge and
necessary dedication to work pieces of Talavera so beautiful and authentic as those that
knew each other in the old and traditional shops of this ceramic.
When he decided to put this shop in San Pablo del Monte it was with the help
of their children. At the beginning it was a small familiar shop of Talavera, but with
their perseverance and great spirit it becoming into Fábrica de Talavera La Corona
S.A. de C.V. which has a great recognition for the quality and good designs in its
Chinas, tabors, gavels, tea sets and big plates. Today is the talavera factory that more
it exports its products to different countries like they are Canada, United States and
Denmark.
Don Cayetano Corona Gaspariano, within his children have tried to have the same technique
of Talavera, because they want to conserve effective the handmade tradition.
For the elaboration of this craft they are used two moods the black one and the loamy one,
and the rosy one, which are bought in the city of Puebla in big quantities.
The colours of their pieces are a hundred percent of mineral origin, the same one
manufactures them with the recipes of the painting of the authentic talavera, In fact

Japanese paintbrushes that are special to decorate and also uses wooden lathes of two
circles that it manages with the feet, gas ovens and regulator of temperature
