A gorgeous piece of authentic traditional Mexican Folk Art! This vintage hand-thrown terracotta cazuela de barro (lidded skillet/casserole dish) features a stunning, rich olive-green glazed exterior beautifully hand-painted with intricate bird, fern, and swirling floral motifs. True artisan craftsmanship from the famous Tonalá/Tlaquepaque pottery tradition of Jalisco, Mexico.
Features a comfortable integrated side handle and its original matching domed lid with a sculpted knob. It measures approximately 9.5 inches flat across the bottom base and stands 3 inches deep to the rim.
This piece has that wonderful, thin, lightweight hand-coiled structure prized in traditional earthenware. It makes a spectacular visual statement piece for a Southwestern, eclectic, or bohemian farmhouse kitchen display!
Condition: Excellent vintage condition with beautiful rustic character. No structural cracks or major damage. The hand-painted glaze remains vibrant. As is typical with handmade earthenware, minor glaze pops or firing character from the original kiln may be present, which only proves its authentic handcrafted origin. Sold primarily for decorative display or dry table serving (lead content untested).
