Jorge Wilmot (1928 – January 12, 2012) was one of the most distinguished artisans of Mexico,[1] and has been credited with the introduction of stoneware and other high fire techniques to the country.[2] His work is also known for its more austere, Oriental-inspired designs blended with Mexican motifs. His work has been widely sold and exhibited both in Mexico and abroad and he has trained and influenced generations of ceramicists at the school he established in Tonalá, Jalisco.
