Pottery

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is pottery available to buy in Progresso? My DH and I have started collecting pottery from each country we visit. We like to get authentic pieces made from that country and figured Progresso would probably be our best port to get that on our cruise in December.

Thanks in advance for your help! :)

Not sure about Progreso, but you can find good assortments of Talevera in Merida at pretty good prices. Made in Puebla, Mx. I have a piece hanging on my LR wall.

Ticul is a town in Yucatan which is famous for its pottery - and you can find pieces in the stores and market in Progreso. Read more about the souvenirs of Yucatan here: http://www.yucatantoday.com/culture/eng-souvenirs-yucatan.htm

Love the market in Ticul. The town is also known for making shoes and sandles. Great little town.
