Handcrafted Clapsticks
Clapsticks or Music sticks are used to maintain rhythm with Aboriginal voice chants during ceremonies or whilst walking ancient songlines. It is an ancestral instrument that may traditionally accompany the didgeridoo. Clapsticks are often made from hardwoods and can be decorated using ochre or burned to create patterns and symbols to tell stories of the Dreamtime.
