Description

Vintage Mexican Folk Art Shaker Sets – Black Glaze Rabbits, Pigs & Siesta Figures


Offered as a set of three, these vintage hand-painted salt and pepper shaker pairs are classic examples of mid-century Mexican folk art pottery, each marked Mexico on the base. The collection includes:

  • A black-glazed pig pair with floral hand-painted details

  • Two seated “siesta” figures—one in a sombrero, both resting in traditional attire

  • A stylized rabbit pair with dark iridescent glaze and painted accents

Crafted from terracotta with a glossy glaze, each piece showcases the rustic charm and individuality typical of Mexican folk ceramics, especially those from artisan regions like Tonalá. Their hand-formed and painted details reflect traditional craftsmanship with playful character.

Perfect for collectors of folk art or vintage kitchenware, these figural shakers bring color and cultural flair to any display.
