Standing 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide, this square-bodied vessel features a soft terracotta clay base adorned with earth-tone bird and floral motifs framed in geometric borders.

The piece showcases the hallmark traits of Tonalá folk pottery—natural pigments, stylized fauna, and flowing organic forms painted by hand on unglazed clay. The warm palette of brick red, brown, and black reflects the rustic elegance of Mexican village craftsmanship, where each artisan piece carries a sense of heritage and individuality. Circa 1950's-1970's.

Its compact size and charming form make it a wonderful accent for Southwestern, Bohemian, or Eclectic interiors—perfect on an entry table, bookshelf, or grouped with other earthenware vessels for a layered, collected look.
