A beautifully vibrant, celebratory, and highly rhythmic piece of traditional mid-century Latin American folk art. This authentic Pair of Traditional Mexican Maracas features a matching canary yellow base, meticulously hand-painted with miniature tropical scenes. Filled with traditional dried seeds or small pebbles, this classic percussion duo produces a delightfully crisp, authentic Latin acoustic timbre. Perfect for Cinco de Mayo fiesta tablescapes, authentic percussion performances, or styling as festive tiki bar decor accents.
- Aesthetic Style: Traditional Mexican Folk Art / Retro Souvenir Memorabilia / Tropical Tiki Lounge Accents.
- Material Composition: All-natural dried calabash gourd shells, turned hardwood handles, and native interior rattle seeds.
-
Dimensions:
- Raw Item Length: ~8.00 inches (From handle tip to the top of the gourd).
-
Gourd Diameter: ~4.00 inches across the bulbous center.
- Condition: Pre-owned Condition. Both musical instruments are 100% structurally sound, with perfectly firm, tight handle joints and fully active interior rattling seeds.

Where even the forgotten can be beautiful.™
