About Cactus Rain Sticks:
The traditional rain sticks originated in northern Chile where
they are used in ceremonies to bring rain. Made from the skeleton
of the capado cactus: when the cactus dies it is dried, hollowed
out, and filled with small seeds or pebbles. Cactus thorns are
driven through the hull of the cactus in a spiral formation, and
when the rain stick is inverted the fill striking the thorns creates
the sound of water falling. As you use your rainstick the seeds
will polish and develop an even finer sound. These rain sticks
will not wear out, they only wear in. Due to the natural materials
used, this instrument is somewhat fragile in nature and will need
to be handled with care. Not for small children! Click on pictures for a larger image
