Vtg Ser Mel SerMel Tonala Mexico Paper Mache Large Egg Birds Sergio Bustamante For bid is this large paper mache egg. Featuring birds, deer, leopards, butterflies and plants all around. Signed “Ser Mel, Tonala, Jal, mex, pat. En, taam”. A fabulous piece of Mexican folk art. Measures about 6 ½” tall by 6 ½” wide. Very nice condition. Comes with metal display ring. I do note some crackling of the shiny thick glaze which is natural to a piece this old. Ser Mel -... Founded in 1963 by Sergio Bustamante and Melquiades Preciado. The combination of their names formed their business name “Ser Mel”. It was located in Tonala, Jalisco, Mexico and very well known for their paper mache crafted items. They have long since gone out of business making this egg very collectible. Weighs almost 2 pounds not boxed. International Bidders: Please contact us for shipping quote before bidding.
