About our Artist: My name is Juana Ponce. I was born in the magical land of Talavera. I began this beautiful artisanal craft 25 years ago due to my father, carried on by the hands of my husband and . Working with Talavera is fascinating. I like it because it allows me to create various colors and forms.

Working as a family is very important, allowing us to bring our points of view to the table with more freedom and simplicity. Without them, an important part of our work would be lost. Together, we reaffirm our identity, and in this way we introduce this craft to the world. Each one of the obstacles that we have been faced with have shown how strong we are as a family. One of these challenges was the passing of our father only a few years ago. He lives on in the artisanal legacy that we carry on.
