    Hi,
    I love this guy, he is 9"H. Am I right in thinking Mexican, maybe a tourist piece?
    Any information appreciated

    Likely from Oxaca and agree a tourist souvenir/décor item.

    I found a couple that said they were Tonala, by Jorge Wilmot, but I don't know anything about this stuff.

    A lot of the owls are Tonala but think the black probably puts this to Oaxaca. Just notice that I misspelled Oaxaca in my first post .... sorry :sorry:

    Does appear to be a little "barrio negro" souvenir "buho" from Oaxaca.
