An 8” tall carved wooden batea hand-painted with an image of the archangel Gabriel.  Believed by many to be a Saint, he’s the Patron Saint of journalists, teachers and postal workers.  Ready to hang.

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 the Archangel Gabriel with lily.

It measures roughly 8 inches in height, 3.5 inches in width.  Ready to hang, primary colors are black, yellow, turquoise, white and gold.
