A large vintage wooden batea from Mexico, hand-painted with roses and flowers in blush pink, cream, burgundy, and sky blue against a deep black ground. A dotted gold border and terracotta edge give the piece the bold, graphic character associated with traditional Mexican lacquerware.
Hand-carved and painted, the shallow oval form has the irregularity and charm of an object made by hand. Substantial in scale, it works beautifully as a centerpiece, decorative catchall, or wall-mounted piece of folk art.
Selected for its color and craftsmanship, this piece was featured in the photoshoot for our Mexico Subscription Box.
