    Description














    Vintage 1980s / 1990s Talavera Wide Mouth Fish
    Fun piece of
    Mexican
    pottery folk art
    Fish is hand painted in lovely blues, reds, oranges, and purples
    Design appears to be floral greenery
    Pottery clay in the fish mouth is not smooth
    Wide Mouth fish are currently popular as sponge holders but they can also make wonderful trinket trays or ashtrays
    Fish has some condition issues from age / storage -
    A few areas throughout that have some cold paint loss - most prominent on the eyes
    Fish has a yellowing throughout - I believe this is from the original glaze and how it aged
    Wide Mouth Fish measures 7 inches long and 4 inches tall
