Standing a majestic 76 centimeters (30 inches) tall and authentically decorated in vivid colors, the handcrafted Chilean rainstick is the quintessential conversation piece and instrumental addition.
This handmade rainstick is crafted from cactus wood and filled with river stones. Each thorn from the dried cactus plant is pressed into the hollow shaft of the rainstick to create the music of gently falling rain as the river stones fall over them. The rainsticks are then individually painted. Traditionally in Chilean culture, rainsticks were used to prompt the gods of the Diaguitas that rain was needed.
