Vintage Handpainted Floral Wooden Maracas
$46.99
Vintage Handpainted Maracas. They measure about 11.5" in height. Very good condition.
Bring a rhythmic splash of color to your collection with this pair of vintage handpainted wooden maracas. Each instrument is a unique work of folk art, featuring intricate floral designs and scenic motifs applied by hand over a polished natural wood surface. The long, tapered handles provide a comfortable grip, while the large, bulbous shakers produce a crisp, resonant sound that is characteristic of traditional Latin American percussion. The use of bold primaries and earthy greens suggests a mid-to-late century origin, likely crafted as high-quality musical souvenirs that double as striking decorative accents.
Measuring approximately 11.5 inches in length, these maracas have a substantial presence compared to smaller tourist versions. They remain in very good condition, with the hand-applied paint and protective lacquer finish retaining their original depth and shine. These are perfect for adding a touch of Bohemian & Eclectic flair to a music room, or as a textured shelf accent in a sun-drenched Contemporary living space. Whether used for live percussion or displayed as global folk art, this set captures a spirited sense of handmade history. Their sturdy construction and vibrant artistry make them a wonderful addition to any Playhouse or Curio collection.
This item is vintage, over 40 years old. All measurements are close but approximate. I measure in quarter inches.
