Jorge Wilmot (Mexico) Empty Pottery Bird / Quail Sculpture - Jorge Wilmot, Tonala, Mexico

Post by esilverstrim September 3rd 2009, 12:13 am

I came across this pottery sculpture of a bird.  The bird is signed on the bottom with a W.  I was looking to see if anyone knows anything about this pottery piece.  It is 9" H x 6" W x 9"L.  It has hand painted decoration on both wings of bird and a beautiful glaze of blues and browns.  Is it possibly Danish or Scandinavian?  Let me know what you think!

I have had this vase for a number of years and would like to see if anyone has info on the maker or the markings that are on it. Its a stoneware vase with what looks like a w with a partial underline followed by 6 little dots in this pattern '.'.'.
Hope someone can help.

Jorge Wilmot (Mexico) Empty Pair of small bird figurines - Jorge Wilmot, Tonala Mexico

These little guys stand 1 5/8 inches tall. The mark looks like an underlined W. it seems familiar to me. I was thinking possibly Mexican but the clay seems wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Jorge Wilmot (Mexico) Januar13

You may be right. I had looked at a lot of Tonala thinking that it may be theirs but had not found anything quite like them. I suspect the W is the artist mark. Thanks for the quick reply.
