Majolica Day of the Dead Fruit Bowl

May 15, 2015

Majolica Day of the Dead Fruit Bowl - Majolica is a pottery tradition that dates back more than 100 years. The distinctive style and bright color pattern set it apart from other types of pottery in its class. Most majolica today can be found in relief form and the pottery is much sought after as an antique. The only problem is that most of it is ugly too! However, that is not the case with our majolica fruit bowls. These colorful festive items are unique and sure to add flavor to your next gathering.

La Fuente Imports has gone to great lengths to make sure each piece is unique. We carefully select our artisans and the location where the items are produced. This is a distinguished craft and the traditions have been handed down from generation to generation. Fathers pass them on to sons and mothers pass the techniques to their daughters. It is a family business. The Mexican artisans are skillful and their use of colors makes is second to none. This is free-form art at its finest.

To that end, let it dress up your next occasion. Furthermore, let it tell a story of sorts. Perhaps someone is retiring or there is a wedding anniversary that has cause for celebration. Our day of the dead fruit bowl is just the thing to set the tone. Honor your loved ones with this age old Mexican tradition.

Pay homage to the dead and honoring them is what the day of the dead festival celebration is all about. Our day of the dead fruit bowl allows you to do both. Honor your loved ones birthday milestone, while at the same time pay a bit of respect to that aunt or uncle who has long since passed. The possibilities and the story ideas are endless with our majolica fruit bowl. Set your creativity free and create an heirloom story piece that will be handed down for years to come.
