Babalu Aye Sopera, St Lazarus Clay Dome Vessel Santeria Bowl Set

This traditional handcrafted terracotta sopera set is designed for Babalu Aye (Babalú-Ayé), also known in syncretic traditions as St Lazarus or Yarara Asojano. The set represents a classic ritual vessel used in Santeria, Arara, and related Afro-Caribbean spiritual practices.

The structure consists of a dome-shaped lid featuring seven symbolic openings and a matching bowl base. Both pieces can be used separately or joined together depending on ritual preference. The earthy terracotta material reflects traditional clay craftsmanship associated with ancestral and healing Orisha work.

This vessel is commonly used for altar display and ceremonial representation of Babalu Aye, the Orisha associated with healing, protection, and transformation.
