    Hello Pottery Friends - I'm continuing to slowly downsize and I came across this bottle brought back from Mexico. I can't quite read the signature on the bottom. I thought it might be "Oaxaca" but it doesn't match the traditional pottery from that region. The bottle measures 8" across and about 8" tall. I think it's no older than the late 1980's and was new when it was gifted to me. It's a lovely piece but a bit of an outlier with my other collections. Thanks so much for any insight you can offer. Don

    SIS, thank you so much! I certainly wouldn't have found it on my own.

    Of course it always helps when you already have a piece:)
