Description

A beautiful Mexican ‘Tonala’ origin hand-made stylised owl figurine. 
Circa 1970s-1980s vintage. 

This one was imported by Tumi UK – label to base.

Beautiful naive/folk/traditional style decorations in dark brown and purple, over a black ceramic. 
He’s a polished hollow clay figure (black coloured base) and has a shiny smooth finish with incised lines with the patterns. 
He looks like carved soapstone but I’m pretty sure it’s clay.

12.5cm tall x 10cm wide x 7cm deep.
Good condition.
