Also included is a miniature Tonala-style stoneware vase with a hand-painted floral and bird motif, signed J CAMPO on the base. Completing the group is a baluster-form art pottery vase with incised swirling line patterns and an iridescent metallic luster finish in copper, gold, and violet tones, bearing a paper Mexico label on the base.
