Changing the decor in your home can be a huge task. Looking for new ideas and themes is a daunting project. Investing your time and money to decorate your house can improve your well-being. Your living areas are used daily and to get the right feel and ambience is incredibly important. A large part of our day is spent at work so having a place to relax is needed. It is only natural that as our life changes or the new design trends come through, thoughts turn to redecorating the home.

Some of our favorite selections from our online Mexican Marketplace include our Carved Relief Paintings - Every charming wooden panel in our Carved Relief Collection is lovingly handmade by a dedicated family of master artisans in Guanajuato, Mexico. The art form, now spanning three generations, begins by exquisitely carving a traditional design in bas-relief, then staining and painting the textured surface in striking colors. The three-dimensional aspect of the solid wood carving cannot be replicated by a painting alone, and adds immensely to the unique appeal of the artwork. The calming images of rural Mexican life will infuse charm and beauty anywhere in your home.

If you are seeking some functional beauty, then consider our Majolica Pottery originated in the 16th century and is primarily distinguished by the milky-white glaze used after the first firing. Majolica pottery is a diverse category of clay arts under which, Spanish-influenced Talavera and Italian Maiolica are sub-genres. Mexican Majolica primarily differs from traditional Talavera in the art form and use of colors. Traditional Talavera is known for its intricate pattern work whereas Majolica uses more free-form designs and artwork.
