Our fair trade, hand-carved gourd maraca rattles are made in Central Peru. The gourds grow in the warm central valleys of the Andes, the coastal oasis, and the jungles. After harvesting, they are dried, skinned, and sanded smooth. Artisans carve freehand on the surface, creating intricate designs. Hand-painted featuring a variety of different scenes, including birds, flowers, llamas, and other indigenous designs.
- String hole in the handle.
- Choice of colors.
- Due to the gourds' natural grown shapes, and the artists' individual works, some variation in design and size may occur.
