Mexican Tlaquepaque Plate, Siesta Scene M1993

Vintage 1940s Tlaquepaque pottery plate featuring a charming hand-painted siesta scene with a reclining figure beneath a stylized tree alongside colorful cactus and desert vegetation motifs. 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.

Overall very good vintage condition with age-appropriate wear consistent with handmade earthenware pottery.

Measures 11.25" x 11.25" x 2"
