Dual-Tone Rosewood Cabasa With Mixed Beads
This innovative cabasa features two distinct bead rows — one of polished steel ball chain and one of dried natural seed beads — wrapped around a hand-turned rosewood cylinder. The result is a uniquely versatile instrument that offers both bright metallic shimmer and warm organic rattle in a single shake.
Crafted from sustainably harvested rosewood, the cylinder is sealed with a plant-based oil finish that deepens the wood's natural colour while remaining eco-friendly. The ergonomic handle provides excellent balance and control for nuanced playing.
By adjusting hand position, you can isolate either bead row or blend both for a complex, layered texture. This dual-tone cabasa is a favourite among world music percussionists who need maximum tonal variety without carrying multiple instruments.
