Bamboo Frog Castanets by Chikuen

£8.00
( / )

These bamboo castanets were made for Oita based Chikuen.

The bull frogs of Japanese rice fields provide a baseline to summer nights.  To the local ear they make a sound like kero-kero. These frog castanets make their own a rhythmical click.  But they do have kero-kero stenciled on their backs. 

They are crafted in Japan from locally sourced bamboo, and are fun items to make a sound.

Each Frog is around 6cm x 6cm and 1.5 cm height. They weigh approximately 26g.
