This exquisite lot of four decorative plates is a testament to the intricate artistry of
Jesús José Berabe Campechano, whose mastery of the petatillo technique has rendered a collection that is both visually stunning and culturally rich.
Each plate is signed, grounding the works in authenticity and provenance, directly from Tonalá, Jalisco, Mexico—a region renowned for its pottery.
Earthy terracotta features a mesmerizing black and white tableau, animated by the dynamic interplay of folklore and nature. Traditional motifs—flora, fauna, and mythological creatures—are depicted with a precision that echoes the fine handwork of petatillo, where crosshatching background resembles the woven straw mats, or petates, of Mexican heritage.
Collectors and admirers of traditional Mexican art will find these plates to be an exceptional addition to their collections, inviting a touch of Tonalá's rich artistic heritage into their homes. Good condition, light chipping, sold as is. If you would like more pictures, please contact us.
