Vintage Authentic African Shekere Musical Percussion Instrument Handmade in Africa. Approximately 9” tall. This one appears to be from Liberia with the long tail used for manipulating the beads sounds known there as the Saa Saa. This came from a large collection of African art pieces recently acquired.
The shekere is made from vine gourds that grow on the ground. The shape of the gourd determines the sound of the instrument. A shekere is made by drying the gourd for several months then removing the pulp and seeds. After it is scrubbed, skillful bead work is added as well as colour.
