Lead was widely used in LOW-fired glazes in Mexico in the old days but is pretty much not used now. Lead is a component of glazes rather than of clay.<br><br>If someone reads this who knows more, please add your comments.

Catanho Mon, 01 Feb 2010 05:16:47 +0000 http://www.mexico-with-heart.com/arts/ken-edwards-testing-the-photos/#comment-394 I received 12 place settings of Tonala for my wedding in 1969. I stopped using them a few years later when I read that this pottery contains lead and is unsafe for food. I got rid of the plates and cups but kept the figurines and napkins holders. Has anyone else heard this? It seemed common knowledge in the 1970s. Maybe the newer Tonala is made with different clay. I received 12 place settings of Tonala for my wedding in 1969.
