Bio

"I was born in the Mexican state of Guanajuato, where Don Miguel Hidalgo left his ceramic heritage to the native peoples of the region. Today it is an active legacy. I began working in this beautiful craft in 1994, thanks to my father, and my husband and children help me see that it is carried on.

 

"Working with Talavera-inspired ceramics is fascinating. I like it because it allows me to create using various colors and forms. I try to draw my inspiration from what the ceramic transmits – its tradition and its characteristic colors from our vibrant Mexican culture. When it comes to jewelry, I really enjoy being able to combine Talavera-style ceramics with silver, giving it an elegant touch. We have our own glaze formulas originating from this beautiful region.

 

"Working as a family is very important, allowing us to bring our points of view to the table with more freedom and simplicity. My sons are in charge of selling our crafts to other parts of the country, optimizing resources, quality control, and designing our pieces. I consider compromise, identity, admiration, creativity, and responsibility to be important traits in each member of the family. Without them, a vital part of our work would be lost. We work by hand alongside other families that collaborate with us on each detail. Together, we reaffirm our identity, and in this way we introduce this art to the world.

 

"Each one of the obstacles we have faced has 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 our artisan legacy. Therefore, he is with us always. He showed us the value of tenacity and resistance in the face of life's challenges. In this way, we grow and solidify our legacy. Working with you, we hope to consolidate our work and our workshop and leave a family legacy that endures for many generations, just like my father did."

    Graciela Review I loved the talavera bell. My husbands yoga class collects them and they used a different one in every class. It has a unique sound. And they have to identify it with eyes closed.

    LOVE The Bright Colors.
    Two Summers ago, I purchased a cat stretching out. Both have the same Beautiful Colors, and the trashcan, will be used as a container for incoming & out going mail. To protect the inside bottom, I cut a disk out of a card board box. This container is nice and heavy so there is no chance, that it would get knocked over. I will be adding to my collection, as time goes on.

    On my white quartz kitchen counter and it is a stunner of a Showpiece!!Now would you be able to create a tall vase just as tall or taller with golden yellow sunflowers on beautiful indigo blue background with variegated greenly stems and leaves? Saw one in Mexico a few years back but could not take with me on cruise ship due to its size. If you can create something for me would be terrific! The you again!

    I cannot say enough about the beautiful, hand-crafted starfish and cactus. The colors are vibrantly magnificent! The starfish is quite substantial and heavy. The cactus is a bit lighter but the quality is not lessened. I love the postcard included with both that shows where the items were made. The packaging is very secure and there was no damage to the items. I love these two pottery pieces. Absolutely gorgeous!

    Ave Maria!
    Juana Ponce is one of my favorite artists. Her ceramic pieces are beautifully designed and carefully executed.This "Praying Mary" sculpture is a perfect example of Juana's craft. The colors are vivid but not overpowering., and Mary's hands are clasped as in prayer. To me the loveliest quality of the statue is Mary's expression. It is beatific and produces a sense of serenity for the viewer. I hung this next to a doorway in my room a little above eye level. There I can look at her blessed face and whisper a prayer each time I pass through the doorway.

    Liked so much, purchased another!
    We initially purchased for daughter-in-law who LOVES jack-o-lanterns. My wife was jealous when she saw how colorful and cheerful these are, so had to buy one for her too!

    Halloween and beyond
    I purchased this item and it is pleasantly bigger than I thought it was going to be. Even though I received it after Halloween, I am placing it with my Thanksgiving pumpkin display. It looks great no matter what. Love it, well-made, and beautiful.

    Awesome Pumpkin
    Bigger than expected. I didn't look at the measurements and assumed it would be smaller, like palm size but it is bigger. It's beautiful and will be happy to display during Fall or year round .

    Painted Jack-O-Lantern
    My fiancee and I purchased two small versions of this in Taos, NM for family. One of them broke on the plane and I was looking for a replacement. I saw this and loved the vibrant colors, but didn't realize how big it was. I am overjoyed by this product! We will cherish this for years to come!! Juana Ponce's use of color and florals is indicative to her Mexican heritage and artistry. This is such a treasure!!!

    Beautiful!
    The colors are vibrant , it’s great quality and just what I was looking for. We had purchased a tissue box cover years ago in Mexico and unfortunately it was broken by a plumber last year. This was a perfect replacement. It was packaged so thoughtfully.

    Vivid Colors and Patterns
    Vividid colors makes a mundane item a work of art. Crisp patterns accent the designs.

    Some Color and Joy
    I bought this for myself during allergy season when we needed tissue boxes front and center. It’s so well made and beautiful, I’m leaving it out all the time. Please consider making one to cover the deep rectangular boxes, I would buy a few.
