Hand-Carved/Painted Batea Retablo of St. Anthony – 27559

An 8” tall carved wooden batea hand-painted with an image of St. Francis of Assisi, Finder of Lost Things.

Bateas are hand-carved wooden “trough” bowls typically used throughout Mexico, South and Central America to knead dough and mix masa for tortillas. 

This small version of a batea has been transformed with hand-painted spiritual art featuring St. Anthony, Finder of Lost Things.

It measures 8 inches in height and is ready to hang on a wall, above a door or as part of an altar.  Primary colors are black, yellow, turquoise, gold, cream and brown.
