1997.5.17 (Instrument, musical)

Four-strand braided raffia, 18" long has 15 pairs of seed pods threaded through it on twisted raffia. Seed pods have been cut so each is open at the bottom. Outsides of pods are very smooth; insides are rough. Top of each pod has been sliced off, creating a circle about 5/8" across. In the center of those circles is a hole to allow the twisted raffia to be inserted and tied. A narrower braided strip is at each end of the wider one. Color: BR,TN
