How can you tell if Talavera pottery is real?
To tell if Talavera pottery is real, look for the maker's markings. Authentic pieces will have the logo of the workshop and the artist's signature. You can compare these markings to images found on trusted online resources to help determine if your piece is genuine Talavera. Newer pieces will also bear a hologram label that attests to their authenticity. Because there are many convincing reproductions of the Mexican pottery, it is a good idea to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer assist with the authentication process. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Talavera pottery.
