This wonderfully designed Kenyan gourd shaker is a great musical instrument that has that classic African instrument feel. The handle is made from solid wood that has been artistically burnt in specific places to give it a unique design, the gourd on top is a dried vegetable that has been filled to make it have a great sound when shaken. Using similar techniques to the handle, burning the gourd to create abstract art is very popular with gourd products.
The instrument is perfect for schools teaching children in groups about cultural music but everyone will love the modern sound that the instrument makes. The gourd shaker was handmade in Kenya Africa, and is approximately 24cms however each one is unique. These shakers are often used for shamanic practises, making music, rituals, and in music therapy.
