A full-size Mexican matraca in bare, unfinished pine — the wooden ratchet rattle that has announced fiestas, processions and stadium goals across Mexico for generations. This is the large model at 37 cm long, built as an open slatted frame with a turned wooden handle. Swing it and the hardwood tongue snaps across the toothed core with a crack that carries across a courtyard.Each matraca is cut, joined and assembled entirely by hand from solid pine in a Mexican family workshop. Nothing is stamped, molded or mass-produced, and nothing is painted or varnished — the wood is left raw, so you see the real grain, the saw marks and the hand-fitted joinery on every piece. That also means you can stain, paint or decorate it yourself. Made in Mexico from start to finish. Large model: approximately 37 cm long Solid pine, hand-cut and hand-assembled Natural unfinished wood — unpainted and unvarnished Open slatted frame with a turned wooden handle Loud, sharp ratchet crack from a single swing Grain and tone vary piece to piece; every unit is unique 100% made in Mexico A traditional Mexican noisemaker like this belongs anywhere a celebration needs volume: Day of the Dead processions, Cinco de Mayo and Independence Day parties, posadas, charreadas, birthdays and soccer matches. Because the pine is bare, it is also a natural fit for craft projects, school workshops and paint-your-own activities. Abba-Express ships these wooden rattles from our California warehouse, so your matracas arrive in days rather than weeks.
