Hand-Carved/Painted Batea Retablo of Archangel Gabriel – 26030

A 7.5” tall carved wooden batea hand-painted with an image of the “messenger” archangel Gabriel. 

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 archangel Gabriel carrying the lily he gifted to Mary.

It measures roughly 7.5 inches in height, 3.5 inches in width and is ready to hang on a wall, above a door or as part of an altar.  Primary colors are brick red, gold, toffee, blue and violet.
