Salvador Vázquez Carmona (born December 23, 1933) is a Mexican potter from the crafts town of Tonalá, Jalisco, who specializes in a regional ceramic style called bruñido.
Later he worked at the workshop of Jorge Wilmot for twenty years, learning other ceramic techniques.
Eventually Vázquez Carmona established his own workshop at his home where he continues to work with his children.
[2] He specializes in bruñido type pottery painted with natural colors, generally creating large pieces such as flower vases, round cooking pots, large jars called “tibores,” and platters, using locally mined clay in white, black and red, creating pieces with molds and by hand.
One of his favorite motifs is that of Saint James Matamoros, but he also paints geometric designs, suns, stylized flowers, other vegetation, eagles, serpents, Tastoanes dancers and birds such as doves.
