Wood slotted spatulas, 'Guatemalan Fry Up' (pair) - Handmade Wood Slotted Spatulas (Pair)

Guatemalan Fry Up Handmade Wood Slotted Spatulas (Pair)

Peten Wood Artisan Sculptors

(41)

"These slotted spatulas are ideal for flipping eggs, pancakes or vegetables in a pan. Since they are carved from wood, they won't scratch your pans," Peten Wood Artisan Sculptors tell us with obvious pride. They carve the pair by hand from manchiche wood, a Guatemalan hardwood that is burnished red by nature, with the grain forming myriad patterns.

Hand wash with soap and water. Never use a dishwasher or expose the wood to heat sources or water, as they could cause it to warp. To renew the shine, polish the wood with vegetable oil and a soft cloth.

Mauricio Morales crafts a small ceramic bird figurine that features exquisite hand painted detailing. "The process for making these small animals was something I learned when I was small...since then it has become a passion of mine," says the Guatemalan artisan, adding that the bird sculpture is made for, "...all of those who love birds." He starts by mixing the clay and carefully shaping the figure,and then he adds aluminum legs and feet. After the bird is fired, he sands it, mixes his own colors and paints the figurine. The result is a charming and precise depiction of a jacobin hummingbird complete with blue head, slender bill, white belly, and green plumage.

Cotton worry dolls, 'Love and Hope' (pair) - Two Guatemalan Worry Dolls with 100% Cotton Pouch

Crafted by members of the Lopez Garcia Family of Guatemala, these quitapenas dolls make a wonderful gift for friends or family that tells the recipient you care about their well-being and wish them the best. Quitapenas means "to remove worries" in Spanish; artisan Aura Lopez explains the Mayan worry doll tradition. "My grandparents said that the way to use them was to take the doll out of the bag or wooden box and tell it your problems and fears," she states. "Then, you place the doll under your pillow and, the next day, your problem becomes smaller or can be resolved." The set consists of two pairs of male and female worry dolls joined together by a red heart. Handmade, the dolls are dressed in vividly-colored traditional Guatemalan attire and arrive in a pouch of handwoven cotton fabric.
