Barro Vidriado Burrito Sculpture Handmade in San José de Gracia Tangancícuaro, Michoacán

This charming donkey was handmade in San José de Gracia, Michoacán, using the traditional piña vidriada technique. Its glossy surface showcases meticulously sculpted details: delicate ears, expressive eyes, and a precious tail, all adorned with carefully applied clay ridges. The bright glaze adds a vibrant finish to its hollow body, which makes it as functional as it is decorative. A detailed saddle completes this whimsical companion. Inspired by the textures of the iconic glazed pineapples from this region, this playful burro blends art and tradition with a sense of humor. Whether displayed on your kitchen shelf or any setting in your home, it's a conversation piece with heart.
