About the betus clay technique:

Betus clay is a traditional technique from Tonalá, Jalisco, distinguished by its glossy finish. This effect is achieved by applying betus oil—a natural resin—after painting the pieces, enhancing the colors and protecting the clay. It is a living expression of Mexican artisanal joy and identity.
