MINIATURE PINATA - 1:12 SCALE My Pinatas are not made to open. Each insert is covered with a mask of tissue paper. Layers of hand-cut tissue paper and then applied and then highlighted with tissue shapes. The colorful pinatas that we know today were first documented in China. Adventurous traders brought the practice to Italy and Spain with the conquistadors combining the playful aspect into Mesoamerican (Mexican) abundance festivities. A visit to a Texas Pinaturia or Mercado is a vibrant, folksy experience. Typical Mexican-style Pinatas are usually 36 inches while US pinatas are 24 inches or less. This
listing is shown in comparison with a Texas State Quarter or ruler and is meant to be
used as a collectable, not a toy. Each will vary slightly as they are handmade.
