You may have experienced high Chimenea and pottery breakage in the past, this is normal for clay products from the Guadalajara region of Mexico. Pottery clay from that region has a high sand content and is inherently weak. Tecate clay is the strongest in Mexico (strong enough for Chimeneas to support themselves with legs made of Tecate clay), this coupled with our high fire and palletizing system allow our pottery to withstand cross docking & L.T.L. delivery, along with years of customer satisfaction.

F.O.B. Tecate, California - All U.S. & Mexican customs, U.S. & Mexican brokers and drayage to and from the border paid by PR Imports, Inc.

Mexican Terracotta Pottery of TecateThere is a band of Tecate clay that is 25 miles wide and stretches South 60 miles from the Northern Baja border, the only place in the world that has this strong Tecate clay —the strongest in Mexico. Traditionally the clay has been used to make floor tile, roof tile and pottery.

It is this clay that PR Imports uses to make pottery in Tecate, Mexico. By combining the clay with a binder, grinding it, soaking in water (slaking) and mixing (pugging) the clay, it is ready to be made (thrown) into a pot.

The designs are HAND CRAFTED by the artisan. The process takes one week from throwing the pot, designing, drying and finally firing at a high temperature for 12 hours, still using a traditional (recycled) wood fire, holding true to the traditional method of kiln firing.

You can tell a good pot if it is rosy red (good clay) and rings like a bell (high fire).

From the kiln the red clay pots are dipped in pottery sealer for longer life. Pottery is then shipped directly from the factory to the garden center. PR Imports pays for customs brokers and shipping to the border.

All PR Imports pottery is the highest quality and guaranteed for life.
