rattle
Spherical beaded gourd with small neck and stopper. Approximately half the body of the gourd is covered with small glass beads (and a fringe of metal chain) forming geometrical patterns of, predominantly, red, white, blue, orange and green. A hanging strap of hide, also decorated with beadwork, passes around the neck of the gourd and projects above the stopper.
