More Details
Hand woven in the Bolgatanga region of Northern Ghana from elephant reed harvested from rich flood plains. Using the same technique as the famous Bolga baskets, these hand percussion instruments are traditionally played along side drummers and were thought to ward off evil spirits.
Traditionally named Caxixi (ca-she-she), they are usually played in pairs. Vibrant, fun shakers are great all-round percussion which produce a range of sounds depending on how they’re played.
Please note that as these are handmade no two Kiss Kass shakers are identical. Pictures are provided for reference; colours vary
A great percussion instrument for the little aspiring musician or makes a lovely decor piece in the home.
