Vintage Costa Rican Hand Made & Painted Frog Motif Boho Vase Signed by Artist

Vintage Costa Rican Hand Made & Painted Frog Motif Boho Vase Signed by Artist In very good flawless pre-owned condition. This vase was hand made by an artisan in Guaitil in Costa Rica in April 2001. Guaitil is a Chorotega indigenous village, named for the dye-giving Guaitil tree and situated in the Province of Guanacaste in Costa Rica. This village has preserved the legacy of Chorotega pottery, through the generations and over the centuries. Today, Guaitil’s artisans still use the same methods, the same traditions, the same knowledge their grandparents and grandparents’ grandparents used to craft their famous pottery. The Chorotega pottery process begins with natural clay and rock, which is combined to create a strong finished product. From there, natural paints – again, crafted with dyes sourced from the earth – are added to create meaningful designs and then, the final product is polished from Guanacaste’s raw materials: sand, stone, and rock. Dimensions: Approx. 8" high x 5" diameter at middle **** If you’re new to Poshmark - Welcome! Use our sign-up code PROJECT_RELOVE to get $10 off your first purchase.**** 322a
