Description

This
Exquisite Large size decorative pot of a Dove
made by master potter
José Luis Cortéz Hernández
of Tolana,  Mexico.
It is a wonderful example of
Barro Bruñido / Burnished Clay
Mexican Folk art and Ceramic traditions from this area of Mexico.  This piece was
all Painted and then given a lovely hand burnished satin finish.
I purchased this piece directly from Luis on my most recent trip to Mexico.
It measures 6 inches tall by 12 inches long and 8 inches deep.
"Luis was one of 5 of Salvador Vazquez' original apprentices; trained in the classic Barro Bruñido technique that is famous in Tonalá.  Luis' work often features elements of dimension that seem to bring his pieces to life.  Each piece is painstakingly burnished by hand prior to the final firing.  Absolutely beautiful work.  Every collection needs one of these pieces."
This would make a great addition to your
Mexican Folk Art collection
or
thoughtful gift
for a the bird lover in your life!!!
