The object has a compact, rounded shape, naively and expressively evoking the silhouette of a duckling. The visible surface features a polychrome decoration consisting of broad yellow and brown stripes on the body, contrasting with a head adorned with green and black motifs, and a bright red beak. These vibrant colors, freely applied, demonstrate the artisanal character and spontaneity inherent in this type of decorative object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe duck is modeled simply, without elaborate anatomical details, which enhances its folk and decorative appeal. The paint, applied in solid colors and geometric patterns, shows some irregularities and variations in shade, characteristic of handmade craftsmanship. No markings or signatures are visible on the exposed side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface finish is glossy, suggesting a protective glaze that gives the piece a slight sheen under natural light, visible in the photo. The color palette—yellow, brown, green, black, and red—is typical of popular Mexican productions from the late 20th century. The object is photographed from the front, on a natural wood plank, which highlights the vibrancy of its colors and the quality of the painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis ceramic duck can be used as a decorative object on a shelf, desk, or in a living space to add a touch of folk art and color. Its playful form and naive motifs make it a representative example of vintage Mexican folk art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
