7.75" Tonalá Pottery Quail Trio — Hand-Painted Folk Art, Signed “Mexico"
A charming set of three Tonalá-style ceramic quail figures from Mexico, hand-crafted and individually painted in classic regional folk motifs. Each bird is signed “Mexico” on the base, attesting to its origin in the celebrated artisan tradition of Jalisco.
Formed in a rounded, stylized profile typical of mid-century Tonalá ceramics, the quail feature expressive details in earthy sienna, soft green, and cobalt blue against a neutral slip. Intricate flourishes—such as dotted plumage, swirling tail accents, and floral embellishments—demonstrate skilled hand-painting and regional decorative flair.
