Large Amazonian Shamanic Maraca – Hand-Carved Huingo & Chonta Wood Rattle

Description

Large handcrafted ceremonial rattle made from a hollowed, naturally dried Huingo gourd (Crescentia cujete), intricately hand-carved and pyro-engraved with Amazonian sacred iconography (ranging from animal totems like jaguars and birds to geometric and botanical motifs). Fitted with a sturdy handle carved from dense dark Chonta palm wood and filled with natural Achira seeds (Canna indica) that produce a crisp, organic, and rhythmic sound. The top is finished with natural plant fiber tufts and vibrant thread wraps. A powerful sound-healing tool for shamanic journeys, medicine songs (icaros), and energetic clearings.
