About the Item

Charming vintage Tonala pottery bud vase features an unusual asymmetrical double spout shape. The vase is decorated with hand-painted decor of a butterfly flying over a field of flowers on the front side, and a large abstract floral motif - on the reverse. The strong Folk Art element of the decor is juxtaposed by the Modernist shape of the vase. Bright cobalt blue and warm, earthy brown tones of the decor stand out against the steel blue or grey background glaze. The bottom of the vase is left unglazed. The vase is signed by the artist "Mexico Tonala" on the bottom. Sculptural, decorative bud vase with whimsical, colorful design and high-quality craftsmanship will make a perfect addition to a wide range of interiors, from Traditional to Modern Country, Eclectic, Transitional, Organic Modern, English Cottage, Modern Heritage, Collected, or Contemporary. We are offering other examples of Mid Century Modern Tonala pottery, including cats and other animal figurines, in separate listings.
