Thetazen Cascara Kenari Shaker Chime
Dimensions: 12" length
Weight: ~205 grams
The Thetazen Cascara Kenari Shaker Chime is a handcrafted percussion instrument that brings organic texture and expressive sound into a beautifully natural handheld form. Dozens of Kenari seeds are strung together in a full, cascading cluster and suspended from a woven organic fiber handle — creating an instrument that looks as striking as it sounds. Measuring 12" in total hang length and weighing approximately 205 grams, the Cascara Kenari has a satisfying heft and produces a lush, layered rattle that fills the room with warm, natural resonance. As a handmade item, slight variations in seed shape, tone, and density are natural and give each piece its own character.
The Kenari seed — harvested from the Canarium tree native to the tropical regions of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands — has been used for centuries in traditional music and ceremonial practice across Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and neighboring island cultures
