Description
Lovely vintage clay souvenir from Guadalajara. Glazed brown rim & interior. Image of a town & the word "Guadalajara" in script on the front. I'm not positive whether this was intended as a souvenir tequila shot glass or espresso cup, or as a bud vase or pencil holder (I did test, & this surprisingly holds 16 #2 pencils)! It would also be a nice planter for a small air plant. 3.25" tall 1.625" diameter From Wikipedia: Guadalajara is a city in western Mexico. It's known for tequila & mariachi music, both born in Jalisco, the state of which Guadalajara is the capital. Guadalajara's historic center is dotted with colonial plazas & landmarks such as the neoclassical Teatro Degollado & a cathedral with twin gold spires. The Palacio del Gobierno houses famous murals by painter José Clemente Orozco. Vintage Clay Guadalajara Souvenir Shot Glass Or Tiny Bud Vase Pencil Holder
