Familia Hernandez-Cana

focus

The Hernandez-Cana family has passed down this unique pre-Hispanic ceramic technique through generations since 1815.  The family rescued this old technique and is the only workshop in the world to create these incredibly fine pieces.  Each piece is built and decorated by hand and fired numerous times to achieve the high gloss finish.  The larger pieces can take up to a month to complete. The Hernandez-Cana work can only be found in a few select galleries in the US and Mexico and is collected  by admirers around the world.  They reside in the state of Michoacan, Mexico.
