The Bajawa Rainstick features an elegant hand painted dotted design and a naturally rustic appearance. Simply turn the instrument upside down and the stones inside slowly fall, creating a soothing sound reminiscent of rainfall. Traditionally used in rituals associated with rain and thunder, each rainstick is handmade and unique, with slight variations in shape, size, colour, and design. Some pieces are finished with a clear non toxic varnish for added protection and a subtle shine. Handmade, eco friendly, and enjoyable to play, it also makes a thoughtful gift for musicians and sound enthusiasts.
