This caxixi (ka-SHI-shi) is unique because it produces a jingle-type sound instead of the standard sandy seed sound. The Africa Heartwood Project artisans in Ghana include recycled metal bottle caps with the pebbles and seeds inside the woven pod. The caxixi is played by holding the handle in one hand and shaking or by hitting against the other hand like a tambourine. This instrument is covered by our warranty and features: * One 3 woven pod with solid gourd base * Sturdy woven handle * Handcrafted using natural and recycled materials in Ghana * as a handmade product exact appearance may vary from photos (World Percussion USA is the ONLY authorized seller of Africa Heartwood Project instruments on this marketplace. All other sellers claiming above to also sell this item as described are not honest sellers so proceed with caution.)
