Be aware that all of our drawer knobs are handcrafted. Each knob will have its own unique characteristics - no two knobs are identical. Thus there will be color, size, and design variations compared to the photo shown.
Our hand painted ceramic drawer knobs are the perfect addition for your tile or sink installation. Most knobs match some of our sinks and ceramic tiles. Mexico is world re-known for its skillful artisans in a wide variety of fields. Mexican writer Alberto Ruy Sanchez Lacy called Mexican tile a "chosen skin".
Tiles have embellished numerous public and private spaces throughout Mexico. A glimpse anywhere in Mexico, particularly in the central states, shows the widespread use of talavera tiles decorating a broad range of spaces from kitchens, fountains, facades, interiors of luxurious hacienda homes to churches. It is through traditional artifacts, such as handcrafted tiles, that one can perceive an artisan’s sensibility, and creativity. Handcrafted ceramic tile is a rooted cultural heritage in Mexico, since its practice of making it began in the late sixteen century, around 1570 and 1573. Mexican ceramic tiles have actively played a distinguished role as an important utilitarian and decorative element in Mexican architecture. Each of our Mexican talavera Drawer Knob is unique and handcrafted. The hand made nature gives it a warm and rustic finish. The Soap or Lotion Dispenser is glazed and decorated by hand, and fired once again to give it its final and lively finish. Its physical characteristics make Mexican Ceramic Soap Dispensers particularly attractive and distinctive.
