Description :

A trio of handcrafted Mexican folk‑art necklaces, each approximately 16" in length, representing regional pottery and woodcraft traditions active throughout the late 20th century. Two necklaces feature miniature ceramic pitcher charms, individually shaped and painted in the style of ollaand cántarovessels produced in central and western Mexico. These small pottery forms echo the everyday wares of family‑run studios in regions such as Jalisco, Michoacán, and Puebla, where miniature ceramics remained a signature craft for market artisans from the 1970s through the 1990s.

The third necklace incorporates carved wooden sombrero charmspaired with wood beads on a wrapped cord. This motif reflects the playful souvenir woodcraft associated with artisan workshops in Guerrero and Oaxaca, where small carved symbols of regional identity were produced for local markets and travelers.

Together, the three necklaces highlight the continuity of regional materials, hand‑shaped forms, and folk‑art motifs that defined Mexico’s vibrant late‑20th‑century craft economy.
