Mexican Tlaquepaque Plate, Village with Cacti M1997

Vintage 1940s Tlaquepaque pottery plate featuring a charming hand-painted scene of a village with cacti. Executed in vibrant yet earthy tones over a warm cream earthenware body, this piece captures the whimsical folk art aesthetic that made Tlaquepaque ceramics highly collectible during the mid-century period. Handmade in Mexico with beautifully simple linework, rustic glaze variation, and classic folk art border decoration. A wonderful example of traditional Mexican pottery with strong Southwestern character and decorative appeal. Please note the chips around the edge, as seen in photos. Measures 9 5/8" x 9 5/8" x 1.25"
