Whimsical silver-plated creamer by Mexican designer Emilia Castillo, circa 1980s. The rounded vessel features a sculptural frog climbing along the side to form the handle, richly inlaid with green malachite and finished with finely modeled silver-plated legs, hands, and facial details.
Castillo is known for combining traditional Mexican metalwork with playful nature-inspired forms and semi-precious stone inlay. The contrast of polished silver plate and richly veined malachite gives this small-scale piece a distinctly sculptural presence.
Marked on the underside with the Emilia Castillo Mexico hallmark and TO-85 designation.
A charming and collectible example of Mexican decorative arts, equally suited for use as a creamer or displayed as a decorative object.
Dimensions: 4” H x 5” W x 4” D
